About the event
One of the biggest challenges in astronomy is to understand the universe from our limited perspective on the Earth's surface. For thousands of years, mankind has struggled to make sense of the motions objects in the night sky. Using the planetarium's projection system, we will be able to demonstrate the apparent motion of the stars and planets in the night sky and help us to understand the Solar System's place in space.
