Specialist Digitalis planetarium technology

A live universe.

Nightshade is built for live planetarium teaching. With the presenter at the controls, pupils do more than watch a fixed film. The simulated universe can be navigated live, so the presenter can follow questions and explore different directions with the class.

Live simulation. Live presenter. Responsive teaching.

Curiosity is best shared live.

Technology makes the view possible. The presenter makes it a lesson. Science Dome presenters guide the class, explain what pupils are seeing and invite questions as the session unfolds.

“Everyday I get to fly into space, go back in time to visit dinosaurs, dive into volcanoes, shrink down to the size of a human body cell or grow to the size of a universe! What job can be cooler than that?!”
