STEM, Stars and Mars

Families are invited to STEM, Stars and Mars, a free show at the John Deere Planetarium. A surround sound planetarium show will take the audience to the moon, Mars, and NASA space station. (The show is suggested for third grade and older.)

After the 30-minute show, families are invited next door to the Fryxell Geology Museum for a tour and activities.

The event is held in association with the Augustana Physics and Engineering Society, a student group, and the Quad City Engineering & Science Council, which supports a number of annual events and programs each year. The council is in its 60th year representing engineering, science and technical societies area and 3,000 associated professional members.
