Scotland's first fulldome digital planetarium coming to Glasgow
Glasgow Science Centre is set to upgrade its facilities to include Scotland’s first fulldome digital planetarium.
Due to open at the end of Q3 2015, the new fulldome digital system by Sciss will allow for guests to see the universe in three dimensions, with the technology able to take them on journeys across the solar system, the Milky Way Galaxy and beyond.
In addition to astronomy, the system will be used to show 360º fulldome films, which will be projected in HD across the 15m (49ft) dome, with Google’s “Back to the Moon for Good” narrated by Tim Allen among the first to be shown.
“The new digital system will allow our visitors to explore the universe like never before through live presenter-led shows taking them on a tour through our solar system, or zooming out of the Milky Way to seeing our galaxy from above,” said planetarium manager, Steve Owens.
“We will take seconds to transport our audiences to places in space that would take the fastest spacecraft ever built 40,000 years to reach and we will have shows suitable for all ages, allowing us to engage with pre-school children, school pupils at all stages of learning, and families, while at the same time enabling us to take our adult learners on in-depth explorations of our cosmos in a programme of evening lectures and night classes.”
