The Peter F. Hurst Planetarium of Jackson, Michigan continues to fulfill its original mission of serving both students and the community. The planetarium, operated by Jackson Public Schools, is located within Ella Sharp Park and houses a Spitz Model A-4 star projector under a 30 foot dome. Today, the wonders of the Universe can be shared with all ages thanks to Peter Hurst who was instrumental in bringing a planetarium to our community.a
