LAUNCESTON PLANETARIUM SHOWS – TYCHO GOES TO MARS*

June 11, 2024 @ 1:00 pm - June 25, 2024 @ 2:00 pm AEST

Join us in the Launceston Planetarium for our next screening of Tycho Goes to Mars.

In Tycho Goes to Mars, Tycho, our favourite cheeky dog with a knack for getting into trouble, is finally blasting off to discover the red planet, Mars!

Join Tycho on an adventure in what’s set to be 2021’s most exciting animated children’s film in a unique family cinema experience.

We’ll learn all about the major features of Mars, including the ancient volcano Olympus Mons and the canyons of the Valles Marineris.

Tycho is in search of water to fly his steam-powered space kennel back home. But how will he find water on Mars, when it looks so cold, dusty and dry?

Luckily, he discovers a new friend, Oppy, who is all too eager to help. Oppy – the NASA rover, Opportunity – has lots of experience exploring Mars and hunting for water. She is thrilled to share her knowledge of the red planet with a fellow space explorer.

Each Planetarium show is followed by a live tour of the current night sky.

* This show is suitable for young children.
