Description

The Little Star That Could is a story about Little Star, an average yellow star in search for planets of his own to protect and warm.

Along the way, he meets other stars, learns what makes each star special, and discovers that stars combine to form star clusters and galaxies.

Eventually, Little Star finds his planets. Each planet is introduced to your audiences with basic information about our Solar System.

The Little Star That Could has been reproduced by Audio Visual Imagineering and Brevard Community College for the digital fulldome era with computer graphic animation. This popular and well-loved story owned and created by The Saint Louis Science Center over 20 years ago has been updated with accurate astronomical information. Have no fear; the story basically remains the same with all of your favorite stars!

Talented artists responsible for the new show include Mark Howard and Joe Tucciarone of the Astronaut Memorial Planetarium in Cocoa, FL. Directed by Willie Castro of Willie Castro Animation, Inc. The new musical score was produced by John Avarese of JAV Productions.
