The Little Star That Could ★✩✩

• From 4 years

"The Little Star That Could" is a story about an average yellow star searching for planets of his own to warm and protect. On his journey, our little star meets other stars, and learns what makes a star special. He discovers that stars occur in groups and form galaxies. Eventually, our little star finds his planets, and each of them introduces itself. This shows that an ordinary star can also be special...

For school visits, an educational package is also available with this show (which includes a workbook and reflection booklet for the students, and a teacher's booklet for supervision).

Polaris ★✩✩

• From 4 years

James, a curious penguin, sets out from the South Pole on a journey around the world. At the North Pole he meets Vladimir the polar bear. Both wonder why the night lasts so long. To solve this mystery, they build an observatory and the space boat "Polaris". They discover many similarities but also differences with planets such as Earth, Mars and Saturn. Come along on a space journey in search of ice, light and a dark starry sky.

Hazelnuts ★✩✩

• From 4 years

Two squirrels, Nino and Lilli, fantasize about a starry sky filled with beautiful planets. Planets where super-sized hazelnuts grow. The two little squirrels try with enthusiasm to leave Earth to see their dreams come true. Leon, an old wise owl, prefers to lead them to his telescope. He shows them what they can expect from other planets. "Hazelnuts" is written for young children, with visual jokes and astronomical information tailored to their level. Discussed topics range from the planets in our solar system to the formation of the Earth and the conditions for life. Join Nino and Lilli on a journey through space during "Hazelnuts," searching for the largest hazelnuts in the universe.

Lucia and the Secret of Shooting Stars ★★✩

• From 6 years

We go exploring again with our old friends: Vladimir, the polar bear, and James, the penguin. They travel in their spacecraft Polaris to study the aurora in more detail. However, when they are hit by a meteorite they crash at the foot of an ancient Mayan temple and meet Lucia, a feisty hummingbird who loves rocks. She tells them about the legend of the 'luminous rocks'. Meteors, or shooting stars - the 'luminous stones' - intrigue them all. In search of answers, they set out for the Moon, along the asteroid belt, and finally end up on a comet's nucleus. In doing so, they learn all sorts of new things and facts about the solar system.

Perfect Little Planet ★★✩

• From 6 years

The children's show "Perfect Little Planet" tells the story of a family of space aliens, searching for the ideal vacation destination. Together with their space robot, they traverse the universe and visit different planets and moons.
It soon turns out that finding a suitable planet is not easy. For a pleasant vacation it is sometimes too hot, often too cold and some planets you can't even land on at all. Finally, a blue planet looks promising, but is it safe for our aliens?

Beyond the Sun ★★★

• From 8 years

Celeste receives a visit from the mysterious Moon and his luminous helpers during a sleepless night. The curious girl already knows an extraordinary amount about the solar system but joins Moon in his search for planets around other stars. These exoplanets are very difficult to find and investigate. Yet together they manage to unravel detection methods and spectacular discoveries follow. Here, the "planet hunting" of astrophysicists is presented in an understandable way and at a child's level. While we're at it, we'll also explore exoplanets full of volcanoes, ice worlds and even super-Earths. Will we find a habitable planet, like Earth, around another star?

To Worlds Beyond ★✩✩

• From 10 years

In the film screening "To Worlds Beyond" we get to know the sun, planets, moons and numerous other objects from the solar system. During this breathtaking performance, we'll take you along the surface of the sun and the sweltering worlds close to our star. After a passage near our home planet, Earth, we move on to the coldest places in the solar system; icy moons and brilliant comets. We explore planets with huge volcanoes, miles deep canyons, gigantic storms or dizzying rings. A great adventure for all those who want to learn more about our beautiful solar system.

Capcom Go! ★✩✩

• From 10 years

On July 21, 1969, Neil Armstrong became the first human to set foot on the moon. From 1969 to 1972, a total of twelve astronauts would walk around on our nearest neighbor.
After half a century, it is certainly worth looking back at the Apollo program. Relive the most imaginative period in the history of space travel in this fulldome documentary.

Earth's Climate ★✩✩

• From 12 years

Around the sun orbit eight planets, but only on the third planet from the sun, our Earth, could life originate and evolve. The Earth moves in a fairly stable way around its own axis and through the solar system. Additionally, our planet is large enough to retain an atmosphere. Research has shown that there are many causes for the natural variations in our climate. These include recurring changes such as the orientation and tilt of the Earth's axis, the solar cycle, and the changing shape of the Earth's orbit. However, in the last two centuries, a new type of climate change has become apparent, resulting from large-scale human interventions in the natural environment. Will we succeed in securing life on our small blue planet?

Undiscovered Worlds ★★✩

• From 12 years

In our solar system, there are 8 planets orbiting the Sun. Since the end of the last century, astronomers have also found planets around other stars in our Milky Way Galaxy. These are called exoplanets. This is a very hot topic in current astronomical research. After all, it appeals enormously to the imagination, if only because the question of possible extraterrestrial life soon arises. The show "Undiscovered Worlds" is about the intriguing new research area of exoplanets.

From Earth to the Universe ★✩✩

• From 12 years

Starting with our own daily observations, we get an overview of the apparent motion of the sun, moon, planets and the starry sky. The observation and study of these phenomena is what we call astronomy. Thanks to a couple of extraordinary scientists and their discoveries, we have experienced a true revolution in astronomy. Since the invention of the telescope, our image of the cosmos has changed tremendously. Amazement and incomprehension made room for new physical laws. Bit by bit our own place in the universe became clear. Recent research, such as the detection of exoplanets en gravitational waves, illustrates how quickly the science of the cosmos is evolving and how interesting astronomy is.

Birth of Planet Earth ★★✩

• From 12 years

During this impressive fulldome show we relive the birth of our solar system. We start 5 billion years ago, with the shockwave of a supernova that started the birth of the Sun, our star in the Milky Way. We follow the spectacular formation of planets around the Sun with numerous collisions and impacts, that eventually led to the birth of the Earth and its natural companion, the Moon. Afterwards, something peculiar happens. Life forms on the third planet from the Sun. We investigate the ingenious processes that the first lifeforms and we still use to this day.
The question remaining is: Is the Earth a unique spot in the universe, an oasis of life in an inhospitable cosmos? Or is our planet one of many with habitable conditions?

Exploding Universe ★★★

• From 12 years

From devastating events in the cosmos, new things can be created. Explosive phenomena are responsible for the way the universe looks today, and not all of these events occur on a large scale.
The evolution of the universe has not spared even the most elementary particles. In this show, we follow the path of one of these particles, a proton, which participates in the most amazing phenomena in nature. It is a story of decay and creation: from supernovae and colliding black holes to super volcanoes and colliding protons. This show takes us to the most extreme conditions in the cosmos!

Unveiling The Invisible Universe ★★★

• From 12 years

For thousands of years, humans observed the light in the night sky with their eyes. At the beginning of the 17th century, Galileo's invention of the telescope broadened our knowledge of the universe. With the invention of the rocket in the 20th century, it became possible to leave Earth's atmosphere and observe X and gamma rays. These provide us with information about the hot and turbulent processes in the universe. But not only light can tell us something about the cosmos. Neutrinos and cosmic rays also contain essential information. Finally, LIGO's detection of gravitational waves also opened new doors for astrophysics. This show will bring you images of the cosmos made by different detectors.
