Launch a day filled with fun, learning, and attractions by visiting the Clark Planetarium. Begin with the ATK Go for Launch Exhibit that is a fascinating history of rocketry, how rockets work, as well as a multiple choice video presentation that is so vivid, it literally draws you into space!
You will also experience how much fun it is to learn about constellations, telescopes, the International Space Station, meteorites, and the solar system itself. Equally amazing is the new Cosmic Light Show that fills your senses and might quite possibly be a stairway to Heaven itself! There's also an IMAX Theater, where special presentations mark man's voyages into space.
With the exception of Thanksgiving and Christmas, the Tracy Aviary is open every day of the year. That's 363 opportunities for you and your family to let your knowledge of birds take flight!
Tracy Aviary offers year-round exhibits and attractions, bird shows, and educational experiences for all ages. Nothing can quite describe the wonder and awe that will be put into motion when you experience a flighted bird experience as the birds and their trainers present a spectacle that underscores how wondrous nature can be! And, you can also take a trip to the Amazon Thursday through Sunday and come up close to some of the Amazon Basin's most energetic and engaging birds. The time for each of these is limited to 15 minutes and only 8 people per feeding, but the wait is well worth getting up close!
Utah's Hogle Zoo was founded back in 1931 at the mouth of Emigration Canyon and it remains one of the most visited attractions in Utah. There are over 800 animals in residence. Among the many must-see specimens are the five endangered species of Asian cats, African elephants and white rhinos. And, the little ones will take delight in riding on the Conservation Carousel, featuring hand-painted models of endangered or threatened animals, so it's fun and educational at the same time.
