Dunn Planetarium at Danvers High School presents Loch Ness Productions' “Light Years from Andromeda” during the “Friday Nights under the Stars” planetarium shows.

The show features time travel, light speed, real super stars — and your family tree — and teaches the concepts of light speed, the light year and how astronomers use them to measure distances to some familiar celestial objects — the moon, the sun, the planets, nearby stars and galaxies. The program briefly touches on the properties of light that help determine a star’s age and temperature, and gives a fascinating look at how light and distance allow us to “look back” further in time as we gaze farther into space

Cost $2.50; tickets are on sale at 6:45 p.m. Handicap accessible. Free parking in front of the school and in the large parking lot next to the tennis courts.

For more information, contact 978-774-1801 or dunnplan@danvers.org, or visit www.danvers.mec.edu (community and planetarium link).
