Jenzano has been in charge of its operation since then and was .responsible for instituting and developing the astronaut training program. The planetarium staff is now eagerly anticipating a new star machine which will be the most modern in the world when it is installed in 1968. The current Zeiss projector was built in 1930 and brought to the United States in 1948 by its donor, the late John Motley Morehead. t , -: '!-S:ln 1959 (the iristrumenti was modernized by the planetarium staff with the latest available improvements. Last year the John Motley Morehead Foundation gave the planetarium $200,000 to replace the current projector and to add numerous supplementary devices. Some of the in struments for the new star machine have already arrived but the new projector will not be put into operation until the fall of 1968.

Special, devices have been developed by the planetarium staff to show astronauts how target vehicles appear during docking maneuvers and to allow them to judge the distan ce between vehicles in space C These same devices a well as actual photographs and films, made by the - sstronauts in space are used by the planetarium in many of its public programs. Under the agreement between, the University s and NASA, istilonaatsiofteii show up unexpectedly, sometimes on weekends, with little or no notice. Audiences have fre quently been surprised to find one or more astronauts sitting in one of the back rows, using 'the public presentation to further familiarize themselves with star patterns. To aid the astronauts the planetarium has also con structed simulators which give the same field of view as those of various space capsules. For its public programs, which change several times a year and are keyed to the OP i AT EASTGATE SHOPPING CENTER seasons, the staff also employs animated models to dramatize presentations. The summer program "Three To The Moon" tells the story of the Apollo program and summarizes America's past efforts in space. This pro gram concludes Sept. 16. "Probing Space" will precede the planetarium's traditional Christmas program which begins Nov. 21. This and the annual Easter program are the plane tar iums most popular, drawing thousands of viewers from across the state as well as t from pieighbqrijjg l''1H?s: ii it -lii In trying to take its educ tional message to as wide a segment of the population as possible, the planetarium also conducts special showings for school groups. The planetarium building itself also houses numerous scientific and art exhibits. ; Public planetarium pro grams are presented daily at 8:30 p.m.; on Saturdays at 11 a.m., 1, 3, 4 and 8:30 p.m.; and on Sundays at 2, 3, 4 and 8:30 p.m. But frequently there are extra seats available for show ings specially arranged for a group, and the public may also purchase tickets for these pro grams. , v Planetarium shows cost 65 cents (with student I.
