An Evening for the Curious, Families, and Little Explorers
The focus is on an experience that brings knowledge to life: stars, planets, the formation of the sun, black holes, and the question of what researchers can read from the light of stars. The planetarium relies on 360-degree projection, scientific imagery, and a live atmosphere that draws the audience right into the action. ([s-planetarium.de](https://www.s-planetarium.de/))
