Tucked away inside Vel Phillips Memorial High School is the Madison area’s only planetarium. Not only does it inspire awe in schoolkids from all over, anyone can go. You don’t have to be a kid — or have a kid in the school district — to visit. And for a couple bucks, you’re in for a show.

Dylan Brogan caught up with Planetarium Director Ben Senson to learn what’s in the skies.

🔭 Learn the stars of summer at the Planetarium’s last public event for the summer. There are two shows each on May 22 and on May 23rd.
