Methacton's Mallon Planetarium 

The Mallon Planetarium is a unique resource of the Methacton School District located inside Arcola Middle School (4001-A Eagleville Road, Eagleville, PA 19403).  Built in 1974, the planetarium has continuously provided unique learning experiences for ALL Methacton students. Our goal, as stated by original planetarium director Dr. Gerald Mallon, is ‘to be a laboratory NOT to produce astronomers for the world, but to produce people who are aware of the world around us’. The Mallon Planetarium provides co-curricular, extracurricular, and community opportunities for all life-long learners. A complete renovation of the planetarium in 2023 updated infrastructure and technology that ensures this distinctive feature will be available to our community for many more years.
