Armstrong | The Adventurous Journey of a Mouse to the Moon
Longway Planetarium Shows
Showing Sat & Sun at 1 p.m.
The tiny, inquisitive mouse Armstrong is fascinated by space, especially the moon. On a clear night, he observes it with his little telescope and is keen to find out more about it. The other mice claim that it’s made of cheese, but Armstrong doesn’t believe it. How can he prove that the moon – like the earth – is made of rock? Eventually he sets about building a rocket in his attic to become the first mouse to fly to the moon. Will he make it? And what adventures await the brave wee mouse? Watch this beautiful illustrated book by Torben Kuhlmann come to life on the dome screen. WATCH TRAILER

February First Friday | Ice Age Mammals
Friday, February 6, 2026 @ 6 p.m.
What is Michigan's state fossil? It's not the petoskey-though it probably should be. The mastodon (Mammathus americanum) became our state fossil in 2004. During the last Ice Age Michigan was home to two species of elephants, the mastodon and the Jefferson mammoth. In 1935 a giant beaver was discovered in Lapeer County believed to have weighed 400-600 pounds. Five more have been found. Come to this fascinating First Friday presentation to find out what other Ice Age animals roamed Michigan. There will be a surprise ending to the class. Presented by Bill Heyworth.
Live Lectures start promptly at 6 p.m. Please arrive early for best seating.

The tiny, inquisitive mouse Armstrong is fascinated by space, especially the moon. On a clear night, he observes it with his little telescope and is keen to find out more about it. The other mice claim that it’s made of cheese, but Armstrong doesn’t believe it. How can he prove that the moon – like the earth – is made of rock? Eventually he sets about building a rocket in his attic to become the first mouse to fly to the moon. Will he make it? And what adventures await the brave wee mouse?

The tiny, inquisitive mouse Armstrong is fascinated by space, especially the moon. On a clear night, he observes it with his little telescope and is keen to find out more about it. The other mice claim that it’s made of cheese, but Armstrong doesn’t believe it. How can he prove that the moon – like the earth – is made of rock? Eventually he sets about building a rocket in his attic to become the first mouse to fly to the moon. Will he make it? And what adventures await the brave wee mouse? Watch this beautiful illustrated book by Torben Kuhlmann come to life on the dome screen. WATCH TRAILER

Armstrong | The Adventurous Journey of a Mouse to the Moon
Longway Planetarium Shows
Showing Sat & Sun at 1 p.m.
The tiny, inquisitive mouse Armstrong is fascinated by space, especially the moon. On a clear night, he observes it with his little telescope and is keen to find out more about it. The other mice claim that it’s made of cheese, but Armstrong doesn’t believe it. How can he prove that the moon – like the earth – is made of rock? Eventually he sets about building a rocket in his attic to become the first mouse to fly to the moon. Will he make it? And what adventures await the brave wee mouse? Watch this beautiful illustrated book by Torben Kuhlmann come to life on the dome screen. WATCH TRAILER

Armstrong | The Adventurous Journey of a Mouse to the Moon
Longway Planetarium Shows
Showing Sat & Sun at 1 p.m.
The tiny, inquisitive mouse Armstrong is fascinated by space, especially the moon. On a clear night, he observes it with his little telescope and is keen to find out more about it. The other mice claim that it’s made of cheese, but Armstrong doesn’t believe it. How can he prove that the moon – like the earth – is made of rock? Eventually he sets about building a rocket in his attic to become the first mouse to fly to the moon. Will he make it? And what adventures await the brave wee mouse? Watch this beautiful illustrated book by Torben Kuhlmann come to life on the dome screen. WATCH TRAILER

Armstrong | The Adventurous Journey of a Mouse to the Moon
Longway Planetarium Shows
Showing Sat & Sun at 1 p.m.
The tiny, inquisitive mouse Armstrong is fascinated by space, especially the moon. On a clear night, he observes it with his little telescope and is keen to find out more about it. The other mice claim that it’s made of cheese, but Armstrong doesn’t believe it. How can he prove that the moon – like the earth – is made of rock? Eventually he sets about building a rocket in his attic to become the first mouse to fly to the moon. Will he make it? And what adventures await the brave wee mouse? Watch this beautiful illustrated book by Torben Kuhlmann come to life on the dome screen. WATCH TRAILER
