Phantom of the Universe

On Sunday, November 9, 2025, we will present Phantom of the Universe. From the journey of protons racing through the world’s largest particle collider in Europe to up-close views of the Big Bang and emergent cosmos, Phantom of the Universe is a new fulldome planetarium show designed to immerse audiences in the search for dark matter. A collaboration of Lawrence Berkeley National Lab, University of Texas at Arlington, Michigan State University, IFIC at University of Valencia, as well as other institutions. It is narrated by Tilda Swinton.

The program will begin promptly at 3 pm.

Doors will open after 2:15 pm for visitors to arrive early and explore the planetarium. There is no admission fee for this event, but seating is first come first served.
