Distant cosmic nebulae and far-off galaxies are also part of the visually stunning projections.
An astronomical experience for all ages
The show is aimed at a broad audience and is explicitly designed as a family-friendly offering. The goal is to place scientific facts into a narrative context, for example, to convey how other cultures interpreted star constellations or which astronomical objects are visible to us from Earth.
