Space Fest: Cosmic Chaos

Museum Exhibit Outdoors

What’s Happening?

With a crash and a bang (a big one), we’re gearing up for the seventh annual Space Fest: Cosmic Chaos. Get ready for crashes, collisions, explosions, astronomical anomalies, and all the things we have yet to understand about our universe.

University Researchers and students in the galleries
Connect with University researchers as you explore the museum galleries! You’ll find them throughout the second floor with hands-on activities, demonstrations, and a wealth of knowledge to share.

Hands-on Activities
At Space Fest, explore a set of interactive activities investigating cosmic chaos.

Solar Observing 11am-2pm
Join us on the Learning Landscape and our expert staff will guide you through safe solar observing while teaching you about our closest star. Please note: solar observing is weather dependent (we need clear skies for observing the Sun); if the weather does not allow for solar viewing, the event will be canceled.


Each day, we’ll feature brief presentations and Q&A with experts on space exploration in Horizon Hall!

Thinking Like a (Quantum) Physicist with Dr. Dyan Jones, Faculty at Duquesne University and Vice President of the American Association of Physics Teachers at 11:45am

 

This event is part of our annual weekend-long astronomy celebration, Space Fest 2025: Cosmic Chaos.
