Marietta, OH (03/14/2024) — Marietta College is excited to offer a free, public, full-dome showing of "One Sky" at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday, March 21, in the Anderson Hancock Planetarium.

Eclipse glasses will be available for a small donation in preparation for the solar eclipse occurring on April 8 of this year.

Each public show includes a live presentation about the current night sky, followed by a full-dome planetarium video and a Q&A period. Please note that all public shows are offered on a first-come, first-served basis.
