A NEW PLANETARIUM OPENED IN JUIZ DE FORA, BRAZIL, FEATURING A 12-METER DOME WITH A ZEISS FULLDOME SYSTEM


Earlier this month a new planetarium opened in Juiz de Fora, Brazil, featuring a 12-meter dome with a ZEISS fulldome system. It belongs to the "Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora", an important university with more than 20.000 students. The planetarium is open to the public as well and is considered the "City Planetarium". The opening was a huge success. The fact that the university is open to the public and the nice architecture arouses great interest, all shows are fully booked. The building also comprises a science center with exhibitions and a great little observatory. Congratulations to the planetarium team and good luck for the future!
