The Zula Patrol: Under the Weather
From the far reaches of outer space, from the bright orange planet Zula, comes the Zula Patrol! Based on the #1-rated NBC Saturday Morning TV series “The Zula Patrol.” The stalwart heroes of the Zula Patrol are on an expedition collecting samples of weather for scientist Multo's research -- using their loyal pet Gorga's ability to collect and bottle all kinds of weather. But when the Zula gang inadvertently hurts Gorga's feelings, he decides to leave Zula and find another planet to live on. Interplanetary villain Dark Truder then tricks Gorga into stealing the weather from other planets - part of his latest nefarious scheme to rule the Universe. Join the Zula Patrol on the expedition as they tour our solar system trying to find their loyal pet Gorga. In the process, you will learn about different types of weather on earth and the other planets as well as the similarities and differences between both. Don’t miss the surprise at the end! In addition, you'll tour the night sky as seen from your own backyard. A co-production of Zula USA, LLC www.zula.com and Spitz Inc.

Secret of the Carboard Rocket
Climb aboard a magical cardboard rocket and embark on an outstanding adventure with two young explorer's, Marcus and Bonnie. In addition to experiencing a look at the constellations of the night sky, you'll experience a breathtaking, up-close look at each of our solar system's planets alongside the ship's navigator, a rather plucky astronomy book - a character personified by a wise, kind old man. You will visit each planet and learn fun and interesting facts about them! It's not until the end of the adventure when you find out what the true secret of the rocket is - something that makes this apparently impossible trip to the edge of the solar system and back become possible. Secret of the Cardboard Rocket is a Clark Planetarium Production and was produced with state of the art 3-D animation and a 5.1 soundtrack, and with spectacular effects created at George Lucus' Skywalker Ranch.

Extreme Planets
Imagine a world where an ocean of molten rock breaks against a pitch black shoreline of hardened lava...a place where a seething hot and swollen star hangs perpetually over the horizon, and night never falls. Imagine a world where the rocks glow in luminescent shades of pink, blue and green under a madly spinning burned-out star...a planet where auroras perpetually dance across the starry sky. These may sound like the products of a wildly creative imagination, but they’re not. Scientists now believe that places like these, and places even more incredible, may actually exist throughout the universe. Now, armed with the latest scientific methods of detection, we are combing the skies, looking for planets that may be like Earth. And what we are discovering are places so strange and exotic that they defy the imagination. Come join us on an immersive voyage of discovery as we tour not only our own backyard night sky, but the nearby universe in search of these truly Extreme Planets. Shown in fabulous DIGITAL 360! A Clark Planetarium production. Narrated by Star Trek's Rene Auberjonois. After the evening show, FREE telescope observing on the Planetarium's Observation Deck will be available (weather permitting).
