Sudekum Planetarium

Sit back, relax, and watch the stars come out during Nightwatch, our live show that highlights the stars, constellations, and planets visible in the evening at this time of year. Come chat with us after the show - it’s a great opportunity to ask questions. Check our schedule for showtimes.

Don’t forget to check out our latest star chart and take a look at the real sky!

Yes. The Sudekum Planetarium is located inside Adventure Science Center. General admission or an active membership is required in conjunction with show tickets.

Children under the age of 2 seated in an adult’s lap may admitted to a planetarium show for free. If you wish your child to be in a separate seat (i.e., in a carrier), a separate ticket is required.

At the center of the Turner Theatre is the GOTO Chiron optical star projector that fills the dome with more than 6.5 million stars (a stunning improvement from the 2,400 projected by its predecessor). This breathtakingly realistic night sky is combined with a 4K Digistar 5 fulldome system that projects images and animations of the wonders of the universe from horizon to horizon. No other planetarium in the country offers the seamless integration of these two technologies. The gently sloping seating and powerful 13,000-watt, 5.1 surround sound system give Sudekum guests a unique, immersive, and exhilarating experience.

Yes! Sudekum Planetarium has created original productions for planetariums since 1987. If you’re ready to bring our shows to your planetarium, please get in touch for more information!
