Journey through the Carolina night sky using the lens of cultural astronomy. Join Morehead educators in exploring the night sky through the lens of cultural astronomy. One Sky, Many Eyes is a unique, live overview of the current North Carolina night sky—weaving together modern astronomy and traditional interpretations of the heavens from various cultures. Similar to the original Carolina Skies, this show is never the same twice. A Morehead educator leads this “live” star show, a traditional planetarium show focusing on stars, planets, and constellations. This show is recommended for ages 9 and up.

What is One Sky, Many Eyes | Planetarium Show? This live presentation at Morehead Planetarium explores the current North Carolina night sky by blending modern astronomy with traditional cultural stories about the stars. If you plan to go, keep in mind that this program is designed for children ages nine and older, making it a better fit for upper elementary and middle schoolers rather than toddlers. Because the show is fully live, the presenter tailors the journey each time, meaning no two visits are identical. This event makes an excellent Sunday afternoon outing because it offers a calm, educational environment to wind down the weekend. It is a simple way to spark a conversation about history and science on the drive home.
