Mr. Sun - Journey Through the Galaxy: A spectacular journey through the Milky Way
On May 16, 2026, the Sparkassen Planetarium Augsburg will open its dome for a fascinating presentation about our galaxy. Mr. Sun - Journey Through the Galaxy takes visitors on a scientifically based discovery tour that impressively combines astronomy, space travel, and immersive planetarium technology.
When research turns into a journey
The focus is on the space mission Gaia, which aims to map the Milky Way with unprecedented accuracy. The presentation tells of the work of an astrophysicist, the big questions in celestial research, and the search for the structure of our cosmic home. The result is an event experience that closely intertwines knowledge and wonder.
Immersive atmosphere under the planetarium dome
The S-Planetarium Augsburg relies on dome-filling projections, music, and live-moderated elements. This creates a dense event atmosphere where the audience is right in the middle of the action. The film and the moderated part alternate in such a way that the overall presentation usually lasts 60 to 70 minutes.
Important information for visitors
The presentation is recommended for an audience aged 14 and older. The planetarium has 70 seats, is barrier-free accessible, and offers two wheelchair spaces in the dome. No entry is allowed after the start. Coats and bags must be placed in the cloakroom before the presentation, and food and drinks are not permitted in the dome.
Directions, parking, and arrival
The visitor entrance is located at Ludwigstraße 14 at the corner of Ludwigstraße/Grottenau. Several parking garages are available in the vicinity, including the Ludwiggarage, the Augusta-Garage with direct access, and the Ernst-Reuter-Platz parking garage. With public transport, the stops Staatstheater, Rathausplatz, and Karlstraße are conveniently accessible.
