Laser light shows are back for one weekend only at Mueller Planetarium at the University of Nebraska State Museum in Morrill Hall. However, these are not the laser shows audiences have seen in the past. On Oct. 19, 20, and 21, the Planetarium will present music-themed shows performed by Lightwave International using state-of-the-art laser projectors. This is a one-time only chance for audiences to experience the latest in laser display technology.
