A varied urban walk, maintained by the Sciencenter, through a scaled solar system built as a memorial to Ithaca resident and astronomer Carl Sagan. The walk travels from The Commons through the Fall Creek neighborhood, ending at the Sciencenter. Along the route visitors encounter two neighborhood parks, a coffee shop, a grocery store and walk along a channelized section of Cascadilla Creek. The trail is marked by “planet stations” monolithic structures that display information and a scale model of each planet. The trail route follows neighborhood sidewalks. All crosswalks along the route, as well as the one pedestrian bridge, are accessible to persons with disabilities.
