Adler Planetarium
Chicago
When Max Adler founded the Adler Planetarium & Astronomy Museum
in 1930, he recognized the complementary roles of a planetarium and astronomical
artifacts. Adler purchased a collection of about 500 astronomical, navigational,
and mathematical instruments from Anton Mensing in the Netherlands.
Housed in the Adler's Webster Institute for the History of Astronomy,
the Scientific Instrument Collection today contains about 2000 instruments
and models from the 12th through the 20th centuries.
Shoot for the Moon at the Adler Planetarium! This new permanent exhibition
highlights the exciting stories of space exploration and America's bold
plans to return to the Moon. The exhibition begins with A Journey with
Jim Lovell, featuring the fully–restored Gemini 12 spacecraft and the Lovell
Collection of personal space artifacts.
