Description

Enjoy two passes to the Santa Rosa Junior College Planetarium. With a dome 40 feet in diameter and 27 feet high and a capacity to seat 95, the Planetarium is one of the largest space science facilities in the California Community College System. As part of the Community Education Department, it is an important addition to the SRJC's Santa Rosa campus, one in which the community can be proud. The Planetarium contains some of the most modern and sophisticated equipment, including the Goto model GX-10 star projector. This machine can reproduce the appearance of the sky onto the dome, showing the Sun, Moon, planets, and stars in their proper positions. Moreover, this projector can show the heavenly bodies as they appear from any place on Earth at any time in the past or future, for thousands of years. It can speed up the motions of the heavens so that days, years, centuries, or even millennia can be made to pass in minutes.
