The physics building, Smith Hall, opened in 1968 with a new planetarium contained within. The planetarium projector cost $25,000 and the total cost of the system was estimated to be $35,000. Public shows began in the Planetarium in late 1968 or early 1969, with Physics Professor Dr. Kenneth Warren estimating that it took him 1000 hours of preparation for a show.
We want to keep the planetarium as a resource to the community available to all that wish to enjoy it without having to charge for admission. Our students and faculty donate generous amounts of time to provide shows for everyone, However, there are financial needs to maintain and improve the planetarium.
