This blog was started in 2008 when we did IVF for the first time to build our family after 5 1/2 years of infertility. We now have 14 and 8 year old boys (thanks to modern medicine) and we are enjoying our blessed life as parents ♥ In the summer of 2016 we took another huge step and moved across the country from Oklahoma to New York! This blog is about life and everything in between

Rochester Science Museum and Strasenburgh Planetarium

Today Bradley and I went on a fun (and FREE) excursion to Rochester! Our community offers many outings during the year, and this was one of them. They provided transportation and admission to the Rochester Science Museum and Strasenburgh Planetarium. We were allowed 3 hours to explore the museum and have lunch, then we enjoyed a 45 minute show in the newly renovated planetarium.







The Science Museum was very informative with 3 floors of exhibits both informational and interactive! Brad had a great time exploring. We ate our packed lunch then met the group for the show.

This was both of ours first time to a planetarium, and I thought it was amazing! We reclined back and the narrator informed us on the current night sky stars and constellations, as well as planet positions. The bulk of the show was with new modern projectors, but at the end they brought out the original 50 year old star projector to show us what it could do!




This was a great precursor to tonight's activity....Due to a large solar flare earlier this week we are predicted to have a good chance of seeing the Aurora Borealis here tonight! I am meeting some girlfriends on a beach of Lake Ontario for a viewing so wish us luck!!
