About the Planetarium
The UAA Planetarium and Visualization Theater offers an immersive full-dome experience
with an all-digital definiti projector system made by Sky-Skan, Inc. Two Sony SXRD projectors illuminate the dome with over 12 million pixels, creating
a razor-sharp image. The dome is 10-meters (33 feet) in diameter and the theater
has 62 seats (with tablet arms for notetaking) and three ADA spots. The projector
system can be operated in a "live" mode, enabling the operator to fly you through
the Universe in real time. We also offer full-dome movies on a variety of subjects.
(Please check our show listing to see which shows are currently being offered). The
planetarium also has a Dolby 5.1 surround sound system with a subwoofer, for a seat-shaking
experience.
