YSU’s Ward Beecher Planetarium over the years – The following photo album depicts the facility’s evolution from the 1960s to recent years. An early January fire forced the Planetarium to close and suspend its 2023 programs. In the meantime, the staff is planning a series of online events. For more information, call the Planetarium at 330-941-1370 or visit here.
Editor’s note: An earlier version of a photo caption incorrectly identified Chronos installation workers as Planetarium staff. The caption was corrected on Feb. 10, 2023.
