Our Program
-
Tessmann
Planetarium astronomy programming stresses the K-12 State of California Science
Content Standards.

Each of our one-hour shows take students and adults on
a trip through the Solar System
and beyond.
-
The principles associated
with the scientific method, gravity and the development of our nearest
star, the Sun, are stressed through highly interactive discussions coupled
with engaging question and answer sessions.
