Member Planetarium Screening: Drifting North — Into the Polar Night

Step out onto an ice floe in the middle of the Arctic Ocean as you watch and listen to scientists race the fading light as they set up one of the most ambitious international climate collaborations ever, MOSAiC. 

The Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate (MOSAiC) launched in September 2019. Led by the German Alfred Wegener Institute, the mission froze an icebreaker into the Central Arctic Ocean to better understand the remote region and the role it plays in global climate and weather patterns. 

Appropriate for ages 10+. Open to Family Plus, Insider, and VIP members.
