We’re not just star gazing. We’re star gay-zing.

The night sky holds many stories, in all the constellations formed by the stars scattered throughout the sky. Have you ever wondered – or queeried – what they are?

Scienceworks is looking up this Pride Month. Every Saturday during the month of June, Melbourne Planetarium will guide you on a journey through the night sky to explore some of the stories in the stars and in space that have an LGBTQIA+ flavour. You will also lift off Earth and travel among some of the places in our solar system that are linked to queer stories and icons. All throughout our history, humanity has looked up at the stars. Queer and trans people have always been part of that eternal story. Star-gayzing at the Planetarium will allow you to look up into the sky this Pride month and celebrate these everlasting connections.
