Help shape the new UA Museum of the North Planetarium
Aurora over the UA Museum of the North.
Dec. 9, 2025
The new Walt and Marita Babula Planetarium is coming to the University of Alaska Museum of the North and we’re inviting UAF students, staff and faculty to help us imagine what this space can become.
We want to know:
- What kinds of shows excite you?
- What types of events would you attend?
- How could the planetarium support your classes, research, or student organizations?
- What creative projects or collaborations should we explore?
Your input will directly influence our programming decisions, our purchases of full-dome films, and our approach to community and campus engagement.
The survey takes just 3–5 minutes and your responses will help shape the future of this new campus resource.
Thank you for helping us design a planetarium that reflects the creativity, curiosity, and diversity of UAF.
