in the Grim Science Building






The Kutztown University Planetarium is located on the ground floor of the Grim Science Building, and is labeled Room 100. The planetarium is used for introductory astronomy laboratory exercises and for the university's Astronomy Outreach Program. The KU Planetarium has recently been enhanced with a full-dome digital projection system.

In addition to the Public Planetarium Show and Special Events schedules (see links below), special Group Planetarium Shows may be scheduled during the Fall and Spring semesters. The planetarium seats 85 people and shows last approximately 1 hour. For information on requesting a planetarium show for your group (school, scouting troop, etc.), click here or follow the link below.

All shows are followed by a question & answer period with KU's astrophysicist and planetarium director Dr. Phill Reed.
