Downtown Digital Dome Digital Theatre and Planetarium
In the Challenger Learning Center 50-foot, domed, high-definition, digital planetarium
and space theatre, visitors are able to view the night sky and explore the galaxy through hi-tech projectors
and a 20,600-watt Dolby 5.1 surround sound system, without the use of the outdated mechanical star-ball
common to other planetariums. The theatre also features educational and entertaining programming for all
ages – for both the young and the young at heart. One of only 29 of its kind in the United States, the
domed theatre can seat 128 audience members. The planetarium theatre can be rented for private functions
such as presentations, film screenings and parties.
