EDUCATION PROGRAM
THE COSMODOME
SCHOOL PARTNERSHIP PROGRAM
Inspiring Astronomy and Earth Science Presentations
Carnegie’s portable Cosmodome Planetarium/Theater can easily demonstrate how Earth’s spin and tilt influence the apparent motions of celestial objects we see in the sky above. Accurate simulations inside the dome help students become acquainted with the lockstep progression of the basic constellations, the changing phases of Earth’s Moon, and the significance stars play in our understanding of just “where” and “when” we are in this expansive Universe. With 21st century software, the Cosmodome can also be used as a theater for full-dome or HD movies on any subject. NOTE: This giant dome is wheelchair/ADA accessible and accommodates up to 26 students. (The Cosmodome requires a room with at least a 26-foot diameter and 12-foot ceilings).

Thank you very much for this experience for the kids. My son came home talking about how cool it was. He really enjoyed it. - Smoot Elementary School Parent
