Welcome to the new Stars Over Kansas website! Brought to you by Exploration Place in Wichita Kansas, Stars Over Kansas, both the website and the popular planetarium show at Exploration Place, is your only stop on the web to learn about what’s happening in astronomy. You can learn about the latest discoveries about the Universe every day, while at the same time keeping up with local Kansas astronomy and space events.
The Stars Over Kansas website is an online companion to the popular digital planetarium show Stars Over Kansas, which plays every day in the CyberDome Theater at Exploration Place. The live show teaches visitors all about the current wonders of the night sky including current planet movements, constellations, comets and much more. It also features the latest news and images, as well as a tremendous ride through the Universe. If you’re fascinated by the the wonders of space, and this website has you intrigued, you won’t want to miss the full experience inside one of the world’s most sophisticated digital space theaters in the world!
One of the features of this website will be the astronomy weblog or “blog” of Martin Ratcliffe, Exploration Place’s Director of Theaters and Media Services, and contributing editor for Astronomy Magazine. If you enjoy reading Martin’s monthly planet column in Astronomy Magazine, you’ll want to bookmark this site to keep up with Martin’s insightful thoughts and his highlights of the amazing Universe around us.
Another great feature of the site is — you! Post your comments, and participate in discussions. It’s a great chance to ask questions and engage in discussions with Martin and the rest of the astronomy-related staff at Exploration Place.
