Tidewater Planetarium

Space isn't what you think. It's SO much more interesting. Explore the sky like people could before light pollution. Choose your favorite spots on Earth from which to enjoy the view. Watch the stars and planets in real time or fast forward. Imagine trying to work out the structure of the solar system, just from what you can see in the sky. See our place in the Milky Way and compare it to the galactic homes of all the visible stars. Explore the 20,000+ objects humanity has placed in orbit around our planet, who launched them, who owns them, what they do, where they are and more. View the Solar System to see all the planets, what their orbits really look like, how they're arranged, how they move and where they are right now (or at any other time in history). Add your own solar system object - a newly discovered comet; a hypothetical Planet X; a favorite asteroid - and see how each orbital element affects your object's path.
