Opportunity Description
http://www.lhs.berkeley.edu/education/programs/pfsdetails?typevar=3
Why do stars look so small, while the Earth looks so big? In our exciting, inflatable-dome planetarium, students study how distance affects the apparent size of things. They speed through a day, sunrise to sunset, observing the sky and seeing how the Sun's position changes. At nightfall, students stargaze, spot the Big Dipper, and imagine other pictures in the stars.
