My family had a wonderful time today when we visited the planetarium. The facility was very appealing and we loved the show. This is the perfect way to spend an afternoon with your family/friends. My little one had a blast. Wet will surely be back.

Since it was built many years ago, it seems like yesterday, we visited in the 5th grade.. many moons ago. Still has the eye catching moments of the vast universe. The family will enjoy it. Dont take my word for it check it out for yourselves.

Great experience! This is a hidden gem in Montgomery, glad I went. I really enjoyed the movie and they even showed us the night sky and what to look for in the sky after the movie ended. Ill go back!

This is a great place to take your kids. My daughter attended several field trips here, and they have had events in the evening when there is going to be an event like a meteor shower, comet or eclipse. I have really enjoyed our visits here and its a great learning experience. They have an auditorium with a curved ceiling where they can project the night sky and constellations. And its nice and cool inside during the summer!

Cozy neighborhood planetarium with rotating monthly presentations. Very nice and personable staff give a tour of the night sky following the movie. Great for all ages!

My two year old son and I came here on Aug 21st for the eclipse show. What a great planetarium! Its smaller than ones Ive been in before, but the show was great. My son actually sat still for the entire thing, I was shocked. If it can enthrall a busy two-year-old, it should enthrall anyone!

Interesting, fun, and educational. I like that they provided a print out of the constellations. A nice short family friendly activity.

I joined my daughter on a field trip with the third grade classes from Redland Elementary School. Everyone was wonderful! Rick, the director, was exceptional! He really went out of his way to make it a special trip for us!
