The Process
Preparing for Planetarium Adventures:
The traveling planetarium is designed for 25 students, a typical class size. The silver dome is 20′ in diameter and 12′ tall. It sets up in about 15 minutes. Recommended locations are a gym, cafeteria, library, or a large lobby. During class time, the STARLAB needs to be away from noise distractions. A teacher or other adult needs to accompany the students into the STARLAB, except for Workshops, Enrichment classes, and Astronomy Club.
