Are you concerned as to where our next generation of scientists and engineers are coming from? The Tessmann Planetarium has been inspiring students to study science and take up careers in science and engineering
for over 40 years.

We need your help and your donations,
now more than ever.

Over 19,000 children visit the Tessmann Planetarium each year. But many schools are finding it difficult to send their students on field trips in these challenging  economic
times in California.

Help support science and astronomy
education in southern California. Your contribution may help inspire the next
Carl Sagan or Albert Einstein.

Make a difference in a child's life and contribute to the Planetarium's
endowment and field trip funds.
