Learn Something Every Day Space Fans


Everybody knows Yuri's Night is coming up this Saturday so why not do something completely different this year? Go see the Atomic Mosquitos at that cool new art space the Artisphere.

Okay I had no idea what it was until the Mosquitos crew enlightened me:

"What is Yuri's Night?

April 12, 1961 Russian Cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin embarked on the historic first manned space flight.Twenty years later on April 12, 1981, the US launched the first space shuttle flight.

We think that's something worth celebrating!

Every year on April 12, Yuri's Night parties are held all around the world; it's like the Cinco de Mayo for Space." 

Besides the Mosquitos set, the Artisphere promises "an intergalactic variety show." 

Sounds like a blast.

Tickets $20 in advance- $25 at the door.
