- **Event Name**: One Sky: How Culture Influences our Stories
- **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 23 Jan, 2026 at 07:00 pm – Fri, 23 Jan, 2026 at 08:30 pm
- **Event Description**: Our location or culture does not matter: we all look up at the night sky. But do our stories about the night sky differ? Let’s learn the answer at a film screening of One Sky at Towson Planetarium. This documentary is an international collaboration designed to increase our understanding of cultural and Indigenous astronomy, its historical and modern applications, and how our One Sky connects us all. We will finish the evening with a trip to the roof to view the night sky through their telescope.

One Sky is a collection of short films focusing on Indigenous cultures in Greece, India, Northern Canada, Japan, the Pacific Islands, and the Navajo people in the US. Each chapter is presented in an original style, featuring the work of international artists. Each film stands alone as a short story or in combination as a longer narrative. More information on The One Sky Project can be found here:https://oneskyproject.org/.

Planetarium Director Christian Ready will moderate the screening and also lead us outside for a telescope observation after the show using their 16-inch diameter Ritchey-Chrétien telescope and other portable telescopes, if the weather permits. The Towson Planetarium is an all-digital system, newly built in 2021,​ and features a 24-foot diameter dome, 4K-by-4K ultra-high-definition image, and a quadrophonic sound system.
