If you can’t make it to a professional theater, there are several ways to bring the stars home:
Unlike an observatory, where you look through a telescope at the actual night sky, a planetarium uses advanced technology to simulate the universe indoors, meaning shows can run regardless of weather or time of day.
: Often called a "star projector" or "starball," these devices (like the famous Zeiss models) project high-resolution images of stars and planets onto the dome.
