Priyadarshini Planetarium
Beste tid å besøke
Weekday mornings are the quietest, but since the hall is dark and cool, it works just as well all year round. All shows are indoors too, so neither rain nor heat matters.
Budsjettips
The show usually costs less than a hundred rupees and students often get a discount, so a whole family does not have to break the travel budget. Check the show times in advance, the shows only run a few times a day.
Anbefalt for
Families with children, People curious about space and science, Groups who want some cool air on a hot afternoon

One hour for the show itself, more if you stay at the museum next door
Om
Raske fakta: Kuppelsalen er atten meter i diameter og rommer 180 besøkende som ligger tilbakelent under et tak fullt av stjerner. Premieren fant sted i 1994 som en av landets første digitaliserte anlegg, og forestillingene holdes fortsatt den dag i dag på både malayalam og engelsk.
Høydepunkter: Mørket, det svake stjernelyset og surroundlyden får kuppelen til å føles som en tidsmaskin når projektoren vrir himmelen tilbake flere tusen år. Zoomen kan gå fra hele Melkeveiens sløyfe helt ned til en enkelt måne, noe som er uvanlig også blant de store planetariene.
Insidertips
- Sit in the middle of the hall for the best sense of depth, along the edges the stars become distorted.
- Check the schedule in advance, there are only a few shows per day and the hall is closed in between.
- Combine your ticket with the science museum next door for the same price and twice as much to explore.
- Keep your camera in your bag during the show, photography often disturbs both the staff and the projection.
