💡 Tips from Dan
Your Road Warrior Guide
- •When visiting Clark Planetarium, the best times to explore are during weekday mornings or early afternoons to avoid crowds and fully enjoy the interactive exhibits and IMAX shows. Dress in layers, as the temperature inside can vary; comfortable shoes are a must for navigating the exhibits. Bring a reusable water bottle to stay hydrated, as there are refill stations available. For great photo opportunities, head to the outdoor area where the large planetarium model is located, especially during golden hour for stunning shots. Be respectful in the IMAX theater by silencing phones and avoiding flash photography. Lastly, if you’re visiting with children, remind them to engage with the exhibits respectfully, as many are designed for hands-on exploration. Enjoy your cosmic adventure!
