PennWest Department of Applied Engineering, Technology, and Physics will present Stars Over Clarion at 7 p.m. Feb. 2 and 3 in Peirce Planetarium. 

The 50-minute show allows astronomy buffs and curious people of all ages to experience and learn more about the February night sky. The handicapped-accessible planetarium is on the second floor of the Science and Technology Center.

At the heart of Peirce Planetarium is a precision-engineered star ball that combines optical and electro-mechanical technology to provide an accurate view of the night sky and its apparent motion. Drawing upon ancient stories and modern science to describe the month's celestial happenings, Stars Over Clarion takes the audience on a tour of the brightest stars, planets and constellations.

The show is free, open to the public, and family friendly.
