This is Derek Miller, Speaking on Business. Since 2003, the Clark Planetarium has sparked curiosity and a love of learning about space and science. Through immersive theaters, a variety of exhibits, and engaging programs, it invites visitors of all ages to explore and better understand the universe. Director, Duke Johnson, joins us with more.
Duke Johnson:
At Clark Planetarium, we believe the universe belongs to everyone. That’s why we open our doors wide with free exhibits, affordable dome and IMAX shows, and hands-on experiences that welcome every curious mind. We’ve seen the magic that happens when a child holds a moon rock or watches Saturn’s rings appear through a telescope for the first time — it’s the moment learning becomes a passion.
Memberships help make moments like that possible. Our work stretches far beyond our walls, partnering with schools, community groups, and neighborhoods to bring science into daily life. Because science isn’t just about stars and planets — it’s about problem-solving, creativity, and understanding the world around us. The Planetarium is a gathering place for inspiration and connection.
When you become a member, you help to keep science accessible for everyone — while enjoying special opportunities to explore even more of the universe with us.
