Founded by Bengaluru City Corporation in 1989, the centre hosts a variety of shows (named sky-theatre, Mars, our solar system) that attract lots of science-enthusiasts, school students and families throughout the year. The planetarium features a dome measuring 15 metres in diameter, and the auditorium can accommodate 210 people at a time. Offering a close encounter with our galaxy, constellations, the nine planets and other celestial objects, this educational centre makes learning a lot of fun.
