Nowadays, classical astronomy is only one of the many subjects covered. But it remains essential, it provides the fundamentals. Today, planetarium shows take the audience to the very limits of the universe and into the interior of the stars, they explore the question of life in outer space and recount the heroic legends from classic antiquity. With laser shows, concerts and theater performances, the events in planetariums have come a long way from the original sense of the term planetarium.
Planetariums show us a glimpse of the world in which we live and contribute towards our understanding of the world. They entertain us, inform us, let us experience science, culture and art. This is a great achievement.
