Jupiter Ball: A Cosmic Playground

Morehead Planetarium and Science Center proudly presents Jupiter Ball, an evening of celebration and philanthropy as Morehead prepares to embark on a transformative new chapter.

For more than 75 years, Morehead has inspired generations of North Carolinians to look up, ask questions and imagine what’s possible. Jupiter Ball brings the community together to celebrate that legacy and fuel the next chapter of Morehead’s mission — ensuring the wonder of science and the power of curiosity remain accessible to all for generations to come.

Proceeds from Jupiter Ball will support scholarships, grants and accessible admission pricing for students and schools across the state, ensuring Morehead truly remains North Carolina’s planetarium.
