MSU Big Bang Show

MSU Big Bang Show

UPDATE: EAST LANSING - The show provides a revealing look at some of the cutting edge discovery work taking place today at the Large Hadron Collider, the world's largest particle accelerator, in Geneva, Switzerland.

The show is called "Relics of the Big Bang" because there are some relics, such as Dark Matter, which scientists are hoping to discover through the work being conducted at the LHC.

The show offers a unique look into the mysterious origins of the universe as we know it.

Reinhard Schwienhorst, an Assistant Professor of Physics at Michigan State who is one of the scientists working on experiments at the LHC shared his passion about this show and why it is worth it for people to watch.

"You come to the planetarium, you get to enjoy our show, you watch it and then afterwards there's typically a star talk where someone from the planetarium goes over the night sky and explains what the different constellations are and what's special that you can see this week or this month," said Schwienhorst.

You can watch the show at Abrams Planetariam on Michigan State's campus on Friday and Saturday at 8 p.m. and Sunday at 4 p.m. Tickets are priced $3.00 for adults, $2.50 for senior citizens, and $2.00 for children 12 and under.
