Mayan Prophesies

Visit the Classic Mayan cities of Uxmal, Chichen Itza, Tikal and Palenque to discover how the Maya aligned their temples to watch their sky gods and used interlocking calendars to record the past and predict the future. Explore pyramids towering above the rainforest, designed as observatories to follow the sun. Experience the apocalypse of the Maya and discover how our fate in 2012 may be foretold in Mayan Prophecies.

This program is for children ages 11 and up and is presented by the Fort Worth Museum of Science and History in their Mobile Noble Planetarium. The Planetarium will feature Mayan Prophesies on Saturday, June 30 at 4 p.m. at the North Branch Library, 3020 N. Locust St.  Seating is limited to children and teens ages 11-17 only, and free tickets will be available starting an hour before show time on a first-come, first-serve basis.
