The $19-milIion planetarium houses Utah's only IMAX Theatre, the worldwide premier of Evans & Sutherland's Digistar 3 projection pro-jection system in the Hansen Star Theatre and $1 million worth of scientific and educational exhibits. In addition to the other displays the Clark Planetarium also sports a piece of moon rock on permanent loan from NASA. On the second floor, this 3.7 billion year old rock had been in a Zions Bank vault since the County's Hansen Planetarium closed for good on State Street. Apollo 15 astronauts brought the rock to earth. The Clark Planetarium is a major destination for school field trips. More than 10,000 school children are scheduled to visit the Clark before the end of this school year. Seth Jarvis, Clark Planetarium Director, remarked, "The response by educators to this planetarium is fantastic. We had no idea of the enormous pent up demand for our new exhibits and state-of-the-art visual opportunities." Shows in the Hansen Star Theatre begin at half past each hour through the evening, while shows in the IMAX Theatre start at the top of each hour. The Clark is open 7 days a week.
