The Hansen Planetarium Historical Records Collection covers the years 1955 to 2001, with the bulk of the material from 1965 to the middle 1990s. This collection contains approximately 95 cubic feet, including 24 cubic feet of boxes of director’s correspondence and miscellaneous public relations materials.
This collection contains multiple formats, including textual files (correspondence, brochures, booklets), video and audiocassette tapes, photographs, slides, negatives, transparencies, posters, postcards, and calendars.
There are some gaps in the records, including limited documentation of the Publications Program. In addition, some records were not found for the period of the Planetarium’s partnership with the University of Utah/Utah Museum of Natural History.
The records are open for research under the conditions of the Salt Lake County Archives access policy. Some records are protected by copyright.
