Short weeks should happen more often – it’s already Thursday!
Whether you want to head out and hit the town or just take it easy, here’s a list of options for things to do today, May 24.
Rio Tinto Alcan Planetarium
Get out of your own head a little bit and head to the planetarium. The Cosmic Collisions exhibition is actually out of this world (we had to). The show presents the result of gravity pulling together planets, stars, and other galaxies. Cosmic Collisions provides an extraordinary view of the forces, either constructive or catastrophic, that continue to shape our Universe. Pretty trippy.
