We Are Stars Planetarium Show (Ages 8+)

Journey through the cosmos and discover what connects you to the universe itself. This planetarium show explores the building blocks of matter—from the first hydrogen atoms to the carbon that makes up all life on Earth. Narrated by Andy Serkis, the program takes viewers on a cosmic adventure that answers fundamental questions about where we come from and what we're made of. It's designed for kids 8 and older, making it a great choice for families looking to spark curiosity about science and space. Your ticket gets you into the planetarium show plus general admission to all the exhibits at Morehead Planetarium + Science Center. Before or after the show, you and your kids can explore hands-on activities in the Launch Lab, watch live science experiments at the Science Stage, check out exhibits featuring UNC research, or browse the gift shop. With so much to do, plan to spend extra time beyond the show itself. Tickets range from $12–$14 per person.
