Venture into outer space these school holidays with a Planetarium experience. Enjoy a tour of the cosmos guided by one of the Planetarium’s experienced astronomers and watch the mysteries of our solar system unravel on the dome-shaped ceiling.

Tycho to the Moon

‘Tycho to the Moon’ is a show produced especially for the kids – shown on the Planetarium 360 degree full digital dome. Tycho is the dog that doesn’t just howl at the moon…he goes there. Blast off on an amazing ride with Tycho and his friends, Ruby and Michael on a great adventure in space.

Black holes bending space and time

Black holes are the strangest objects in the universe. What exactly is a black hole? How big are they and how big can they get? There’s only one way to find out… Included in the session is the fulldome movie Hot and Energetic Universe.

Twinkle twinkle massive star

We see the stars in our night sky as tiny twinkling dots, but how big are they compared to our Sun? What would happen to our Solar System if we swapped our Sun for any of these stars? Would our Earth still be habitable if we had a different sun? Find out in this fun and informative session. Included into this session is the fulldome movie Sunstruck.
