Inside NASA

Join Dooley Planetarium on Sunday, November 22, 2026, for their program called Inside NASA: From Dream to Discovery. This show was produced by the Museum of Science, Boston as part of a grant they received from NASA.

In this program audiences will experience the challenges of the next generation of space exploration. By using exciting real-life projects like NASA's James Webb Space Telescope and the New Horizons mission to Pluto, the show highlights the extreme nature of spacecraft engineering and the life cycle of a space mission — from design and construction to the rigors of testing, launch, and operations. Blast off and take the voyage with them!

The program will begin promptly at 3 pm.

Doors will open up 30 minutes prior to the presentation for visitors to arrive early and explore the planetarium. There is no admission fee for this event, but seating is first come first served. No late entry will be allowed once the doors have closed and the show is in progress as when the doors open it floods the auditorium with light.
