Description

You can call Saturn the true “Lord of the Rings.” See the second largest planet up-close, and learn about the voyage of the two-story Cassini-Huygens spacecraft on its mission to explore Saturn and its moons during "Saturn the Ring World." The Dome experience is fully immersive, and viewers are presented with planetarium-style videos and images from a 360-degree projector in front, behind, above and on both sides of them. Everyone is able to partake in the Discovery Dome experience as the dome has a full-size stand-up door which guests can walk through; no crawling or shoe removal is necessary. The dome is also wheelchair accessible. The Discover Dome is a mobile planetarium and therefore does not have permanent seating. There are some chairs available inside, but most seating is on the floor. Please ask for seating assistance if necessary. “Saturn the Ring World” will play at 11 a.m., noon and 2 p.m. Price: $4 for Discovery Dome by itself $2.50 Discovery Dome add-on to exhibit admission To purchase tickets, visit the Putnam ticketing counter the day of the show.
