Description
The stars influenced early Egyptians in matters of religion, mythology, funeral practices, architecture, agriculture, timekeeping, mathematics, and astronomy. By examining the central story of early Egypt, students discover how these seemingly unrelated topics are related to each other. The planetarium allows us to travel to the latitude of Egypt and observe the star-filled skies which provided an inspiration to Egyptian civilization.
