Planetarium

Capturing the Cosmos

Saturday 5 to Sunday 20 July

All-sky astronomy is a new way of looking at the sky to better understand our Universe.

Produced in partnership with the ARC Centre of Excellence for All-Sky Astrophysics (CAASTRO), this new planetarium show highlights current research being carried out by astronomers within Australia.

New and innovative telescopes such as SkyMapper in NSW and the Murchison Wide-field Array in WA, have been designed to survey large sections of the sky. They are finding things we’ve never seen before and will help us to better understand our Universe.

Narrated by award-winning Australian actor Geoffrey Rush.

All Planetarium sessions include a presenter-led What’s in the sky tonight? presentation.

Please note: sessions during school hours may include school groups.
