Grand Rapids Public Museum

Located within the Public Museum, The Roger B. Chaffee Planetarium is named after the Grand Rapids-born astronaut who lost his life in the 1967 Apollo 1 spacecraft fire.  The Planetarium is complete with computerized Digistar and laser projectors, producing multiple video and still images and incredible special effects, accompanied by high-powered digital sound.

Catch the classic rock shows – Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Radiohead, you name it – with cosmic laser lights and mind-busting images.

Seasonal sky shows and special themed productions educate young and old alike about the stars above and our place in the universe.
