The ”Dome Village” is almost ready! On June 19, Heavens of Copernicus planetarium in Warsaw will open 2 mobile planetariums for Revolve IPS Conference Warsaw 2016 — the largest event bringing together planetariums all over the world.
Get immersed in a breathtaking 360° space of a geodesic dome with full dome immersive projections displayed on a huge screen surrounding the audience from all sides!
It’s not every day that such prestigious event takes place in Poland. International Planetarium Society conference is organized every two years, connecting 700 members from 35 countries. It is attended by the elite of the planetarium world, including directors of institutions, scientists, designers, screenwriters and technicians representing the planetariums and spherical projections. This time it is the Copernicus Science Centre that has made the host.
Our team assembled 2 spherical structures with floor space totalling 600 m2. One of the geodesic domes is a white Freedome 300 with a base area of 300 m2. It is equipped with Premium Flooring system and custom projection liner for best viewing experience. We do hope fans of the latest technology and astronomy will love it!
