The Manfred Olson Planetarium hosts many programs throughout the year to take people on different journeys through the cosmos. Fridays in March, they’re trying something a little different — laser shows.
Instead of the typical laser pointer you might imagine pointing at a constellation, these new laser shows are projected onto the planetarium dome and are choreographed to space-themed music.
UW-Milwaukee students and Manfred Olson Planetarium staffers, Ashley Harrison and Autumn Carroll, explain more.
"Since we're super educational this is definitely taking a step from where we normally go, but it's kind of a fun little interjection," notes Carroll.
