Cloud, rain, street lights, even moonlight, can all prevent you from seeing the stars in the sky. But the stars in the Planetarium dome are seen perfectly well, whatever the weather. In this artificial sky time and distance disappear:events which take millions of years can pass before your eyes in second. A planetarium star show makes it possible to see our small planet in the vast space.
