With Polaris 1 on a grand journey through the Polar Night

When the starry sky spreads over the dome in the Augsburg Planetarium, a fantastical adventure begins for families: In Polaris 1: The Space Submarine and the Secret of the Polar Night, children aged seven and up meet the curious penguin James and the polar bear Vladimir. Together, they discover the secrets of the polar nights and travel to the stars in a homemade spaceship.

A child-friendly journey to the stars

James lives at the South Pole and sets off for the North Pole. There, he meets Vladimir. The two friends marvel at their different worlds and search for answers to their questions. Their journey takes them around the Earth and further to Mars and Saturn. The story combines friendship, curiosity, and early astronomical connections into an age-appropriate learning experience.

Wonder under the planetarium dome

The special atmosphere of the planetarium turns the family outing into an intense family experience. A live moderated introduction to the current starry sky is combined with the announced planetarium film. Thus, children and adults experience not only an exciting story but also fascinating images from outer space. The public presentation usually lasts about 60 to 70 minutes.

Learning fun with the penguin, polar bear, and space travel

The narrative supports children's development, linguistic imagination, and collective questioning. Families experience children's laughter, wonder, and shared time while space travel and astronomy are presented in an understandable and child-friendly manner.
