Description
The Planetarium is a multifaceted organisation dedicated to astronomy
education for all levels, from nursery through to retirement age. It is
the Planetarium's unique ability to adapt to changing audience needs
that have enabled it to stay at the forefront of science education since
its formation.
Our aim is to demonstrate to our visitors the amazing objects that
exist in the cosmos, but to do it in such a way that they do not see
our efforts as formal teaching. We call this “Learning by Stealth”.
When they are prompted to ask questions, they are engaging in the
learning process.
