Have you ever wondered how the cowboys of the Wild West guided their cows and chuckwagons across thousands of miles of the dusty plains? It was easy to get lost when traveling through the “Great American Desert,” but these brave cowboys and cowgirls had a few celestial tricks up their sleeves. With a colorful mix of historical characters, navigational tricks, Western fun facts, and Native American folktales, this is a journey back in time that you won’t forget. So, saddle up your horse, and ride over to the Emerald Coast Science Center for a fun night set in the Old West. Recommended for ages 6+.Our Planetarium is an inflatable dome.
