As the world observes Mardi Gras, the Adler Planetarium will revel in Mars-di Gras—a celebration of our favorite red planet and humanity’s determination to explore it. Mars-di Gras will bring Adler expertise (and a festive spirit) to thousands of viewers throughout our city and around the world.
As the rover closes in on Mars, a live broadcast from the museum will highlight past achievements in Mars exploration, give viewers an exclusive look at rare Mars-related artifacts from our collection, and connect the story of Perseverance to some of the stories of space exploration featured in our exhibitions. Adler staff will also facilitate live discussions and provide commentary during the rover’s landing!
