Black Holes: the Other Side of Infinity brings the current science of black holes to the dome screen. Supported by grants from NASA's high-energy GLAST telescope project and the National Science Foundation, this cutting-edge full dome projection features high-resolution, animated visualizations of cosmic phenomena, working with real data generated by computer simulations. Visualization (as opposed to a Hollywood-type movie) uses only real data and computer simulations of real processes, not some artist's imagination. Read more about these showings and get up to date information at the Planetarium’s website: bakersfieldcollege.edu/planetarium. All shows last approximately one hour. To purchase tickets, call the Bakersfield College Ticket Office at 395-4326 or purchase online at tinyurl.com/planetariumtickets. Tickets will not be sold at the door.
