If you thought you had seen everything at the Adler Planetarium, think again. Thursday, October 15th will mark the launch of "Adler After Dark" which features music, drinks and appetizers the 3rd Thursday of every month. Guests will be able to enjoy special features of the planetarium including having their skin analyzed with a UV camera, testing the strength of a space shuttle heat tile by placing your hand behind it - - as they use a blow torch, and best of all ... having access to the Doane Observatory, the largest public telescope in the Midwest. The opening night (10/15) will be free 6p-10p, with every event after costing $15 (non-members). Thursday is the new Friday, and has been for some time now, so give the club scene a break and change it up a bit.
