The RU Planetarium is located on the ground floor of Curie Hall in Room 43.

Due to the construction of the new Center for the Sciences building, please enter the conjoined buildings Reed and Curie Halls through the Reed Hall entrance, on the main campus side. Go to the back of the building, take the elevator down one floor, and the planetarium will be the second door to your right after you get off the elevator.
