Join us in the Launceston Planetarium for our next screening of We Are Guardians.
Climate change is one of the most significant threats that we as humans currently face.
The world, its peoples and environments are connected and interdependent. From the smallest bacteria to the largest ocean whale; there exists a link between all things.
In a world out of balance, We Are Guardians looks at how ecosystems are intrinsically connected and with the increasing use of satellite monitoring, examines the links between human activities and climate change.
We Are Guardians is a highly immersive, leading-edge look at the role of satellites in orbit around Earth - how they monitor the effects of a changing climate, and how the information they provide will be crucial in our fight to reduce harmful emissions.
This show is suitable for families.
Each Planetarium show is followed by a live tour of the current night sky.
