Maybe it’s ten, or twelve, or more. Take a tour to explore the variety of objects that populate our solar system. Along the way, the audience will examine each planet individually and then step back to look at the big picture: rocky worlds compared to gas giants and more. And just what IS a planet, anyway? The answer may surprise you.
The Horwitz-DeRemer Planetarium is located at the Retzer Nature Center in Waukesha.
