Triton College Library/ Learning Resource Center (Cernan Earth And Space Center)

The Cernan Earth and Space Center will use its IMLS award to produce a planetarium program entitled, “Touch the Sky.” Underserved K-12 students, day care centers, youth, seniors, and other groups in the communities surrounding Triton College will be able to explore the cosmos and learn about science. The “Touch the Sky” project will introduce as many as 14,000 underserved students to different areas of science through imaginary trips: aboard the space shuttle, back in time to the age of dinosaurs, or to the planets of the solar system.
