Water: our most precious resource. Without it, life could not exist on our planet. Is the reverse also true? If we search for water, will we also find life? Stunning imagery will captivate you as we journey to, and sometimes even below, the surfaces of our neighbor worlds to discover whether life might be possible beyond our home planet. Oasis In Space takes you on a startling and beautiful journey through our Solar System and beyond in search of water and water worlds like Earth. Incorporating the latest results of astronomical research and exploration, including recent data from robot explorers, Oasis In Space offers a new perspective on a substance of obvious importance to our planet.

Oasis In Space is the first in a series of fulldome video programs for Spitz's ElectricSky theaters to be entirely produced using original 3D computer animation. With a proven, audience-tested story, visually immersive imagery and an original surround-sound musical score, Oasis In Space will inform, delight and entertain viewers of all ages in this showing at the Virginia Living Museum's Abbitt Planetarium.



Admission Fee: $4+ museum adm
