Lincoln (Neb.) - Sept. 18, 2001 - Beginning Sept. 22, the astronomy show at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln's Mueller Planetarium will be "How to Watch a UFO."
Audiences will learn many simple tips about observing the sky, including planets, stars and weather effects, many of which can be misidentified as UFOs by the casual observer. In a fun, family experience, the 35-minute show is designed to help observers learn to spot these common effects.
"How to Watch a UFO" will be presented at 2 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays (except Nebraska home football Saturdays) through Oct. 21. Admission is $4 for adults and $3 for all students and senior citizens. Tickets go on sale one-half hour before show time in the planetarium lobby in the University of Nebraska State Museum (Morrill Hall), 14th and U streets.
For further information, telephone the planetarium at (402) 472-2641
