Our Mission

Our mission carries three components: Teaching, Outreach, and Service to the Community. The planetarium provides a high profile learning environment for school children ages K-12, and Wayne State students enrolled in Physical Science courses - especially those enrolled in the Department’s new BA Astronomy program.
