Virtual Planetarium Show for Kids: 2021 Space Missions

While much of the world went into “pause mode” in 2020, the planets kept moving in their orbits, robot space probe missions continued, and we still had to make sure the Space Station was well stocked with toilet paper and orange juice. 2021 will be even busier. In today’s show we’ll preview upcoming events in space exploration, including two landings on Mars and even an extraterrestrial helicopter!

Just like programs in the Planetarium, we’ll be able to take questions—this time through chat and comments. Recommended for ages 6–10. Please register only once per household.
