One Month in Space: Weekly Movies and Exploration #1
Encounters in the Milky Way & Our Evolving Sky
Thursday, January 8, 2026
6:00 pm – 7:00 pm
Get ready for a weekly double-feature to kick off the new year! Every Thursday in January, relax with a snack and a fully immersive movie in the EcoTarium’s 4K planetarium, then dive deeper with an interactive experience with one of our resident experts.
In Encounters in the Milky Way, Pedro Pascal narrates the chance encounters that have shaped our place in the universe. Get front-row seats to spectacular moments in our Solar System’s past and future, including the paths of stars and comets, and a visually stunning merger of our Milky Way with a smaller satellite galaxy.
Then, with an educator as your in-person guide, return to Worcester and witness the night sky’s evolution over hundreds of thousands of years of human history.
