The 2015-16 Science on Saturday program is sponsored by the MIT Museum and the Akamai Foundation and presented at MIT's Kresge Auditorium.

Our next Science on Saturday event will be “Planets: Pluto and Beyond” on October 17th.

We will have an on-stage presentation featuring the latest results from NASA’s flyby of Pluto, plus information on newly discovered planets orbiting other stars.

After the stage show, there will be many different hands-on activity tables where kids can explore various aspects of planetary science and astronomy.
