The latest technology enables realistic full-dome video projections, 360-degree flights to alien solar systems and natural phenomena are explained in an understandable way. Visitors can expect not only realistic flight and movement effects, but also sensational surround acoustics. In the observatory, powerful telescopes bring our planets and distant galaxies closer to the eye. Every Friday, anyone interested is cordially invited to go on a nighttime tour of discovery through the sky together. And anyone who is particularly interested in the subject of astronomy can look forward to a wide range of courses, working groups and further training for all ages. The numerous events promise a varied offering for families, children and private groups.
