Some people think the Sudekum Planetarium is just another big dome with a big staff and a big budget. While our 63 foot (19 meter) dome houses a fulldome and opto-mechanical hybrid system, laser and inset projectors, we work hard to maintain an intimate, friendly environment for our visitors.
Like you, we are looking for high-quality programming. One of our goals is to inspire and educate people of all ages about the variety of worlds around us. Through engaging productions, our guests acquire a broad range of knowledge and experience.
With the generosity and long-term support of the Sudekum Memorial Trust we have had the privilege of producing completely original programs since 1987. Many shows in our catalog have received awards for scriptwriting or audio-visual production. Sudekum’s fulldome productions have played in domes of all sizes, from 16 to 68 feet. Our productions fulfill educational state standards while engaging audiences at many levels. The soundtracks are produced using original music and professional narrators.
If you have any questions or comments, do not hesitate to call or drop an email. You can also refer to our FAQ list. If you have suggestions for future production, please let us know. Visitors are always welcome – get in touch and we can set up a time!
Thanks for your time, interest, and support. May you have clear skies and pin-point stars.
