Musica- Why is the Universe Beautiful?

December 8 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm

Free

This all-ages show in the planetarium presents the idea that art, music, physics and mathematics are fundamentally related and an integral part of the beauty of the Cosmos. With vivid, detailed descriptions of the spiral designs inherent in natural phenomena such as DNA, sunflowers and galaxies, the concepts of harmony and harmonics resulting from maths and physics are demonstrated to be universally present.

*Recommended for all audiences
