About the Space Show

The Space Show in the Hayden Planetarium at the Rose Center for Earth and Space uses state-of-the art technology to communicate cutting-edge science. A digital video system projects across the theater's 67-foot-wide hemispheric dome, and every seat has an amazing view.
The Hayden Planetarium is an "immersive environment," in which you feel as if you're part of the action taking place on screen. The journey may seem like science fiction, but it is all based on authentic scientific observations, data, and models.
