Stories among the Stars
Fernbank Science Center and the Southern
Order of Storytellers collaborate on Stories Among the Stars, a fund-raising
event marking the autumnal equinox. As the star projector depicts the night sky
on the planetarium dome, storytellers will share tales of the autumn
constellations, including the stories of Demeter and Persephone, Andromeda, the
Milky Way, and Mars. Bridging the gap between folklore and science, a Fernbank
Science Center astronomer will lead a tour of the season's brightest stars, and
answer questions about the reason for the seasons. Advance ickets available at http://fsc.fernbank.edu/sas.htm
