| About: | This facility is totally far out! Learn how much you would weigh on Venus and about black holes in the universe. In the Star Theater, visitors recline in comfortable seats while the heavens open above them on the Skydome screen. Among the many exhibits, you can see a meteorite weighing more than one ton that actually fell in Nevada. The public observatory contains a 12-inch reflecting telescope so you can see the stars up close and personal. |

Reviewed from Yahoo! Movies: showers are great...especially when they are golden
Under the stars: I have always enjoyed taking the shows ~ I remember when the Atmospherium Planetarium opened I went to the first show. It was amazing floating with the Universe ~ if only for a moment. I visited everytime a new show comes to town ~ I will patiently await the next time. Thank you for offering such an amazing place & such an affordable price. Keep up the good work!
Filled with things to learn: I enjoyed watching a show here and learning about the stars, then aterwards taking a stroll in the museum that had lots of little things for kids to learn
