SIDE NOTE:
Their programs are presenter-led presentations projected onto the dome with three HD digital projectors. Most of their presentations are developed by individual presenters, which allows the audience to have an opportunity to interact with someone who has researched the particular topic and can likely answer most of their questions.
While the majority of the shows are suitable for most ages, some topics may be a bit more technical than others. Most shows also include a “star show” using the Spitz A3P Planetarium Projector to project the current night sky’s stars on the dome, where the audience will learn to find some of the key constellations visible that night.
