While many can recognize the name of Mercury as the fastest and closest planet to our sun, for a time that idea wasn't always believed. Join Andy Epton of the Solar System Ambassador program as we take a look at the former contender to Mercury's status and how we refined our observations to crown the fastest of the inner planets.
Join us every first Friday of the month for talks on astronomy and local science topics. First Fridays at Longway Planetarium are funded in part by the Genesee County Arts Education and Cultural Enrichment Millage. Your tax dollars are at work.
