Paulucci Space TheatreRecline comfortably while viewing the night sky inside the planetarium, or watch a stunning large format 70 mm movie on the 40-foot dome. The Theatre shows IMAX style films and is used for solar and planet education. It features a projector system which projects movies over the entire dome, a Spitz Star Projector that can re-create the night sky from any location on earth at any time, and a console with over 24 slide projectors that produce programs with dynamic sound.
