What a great Friday with the exploraDome Planetarium! 🌎✨🌟
We had a fantastic turnout, and everyone had a great time learning about the stars, the night sky, galaxies, and our place in the universe. The traveling planetarium brought space exploration right to Melrose, and it was amazing to see the Earth, constellations, and distant galaxies projected all around the dome.
Thank you to everyone who joined us for this unique experience—we loved seeing so many curious minds exploring the wonders of space!
🚀 Keep looking up, Dutchmen!
