![]() NPS/R. Maher The Rock Creek Park Planetarium has a seating capacity of 60 for ranger led star programs. Since films have a defined perspective, capacity is limited to about 35 people. Space for wheelchairs is limited. Programs in the planetarium vary in length and subject matter. Audience age limits are set to provide the best atmosphere for each program. These age requirements are enforced for all planetarium programs out of respect for all visitors. For visitor safety, there is no admittance once planetarium doors close. A list of programs is available on the park calendar page. What's Going on at the Planetarium?Please note, as of January 9, 2025, all planetarium programs are cancelled until further notice although they are still listed on the calendar. The cancellation is due to an HVAC issue in the building. To check if programs have resumed, see our Alerts & Conditions page. Once resumed, an alert for this issue will no longer display.
