Museums, planetariums, and exhibitions all aim to educate the public. Museums house cultural artifacts and objects of historical significance. Planetariums use projected scenes to simulate celestial objects and motions. Exhibitions organize displays of select items to inform audiences on topics such as art, science and business.

1. INTRODUCTION
A museum is an institution that cares for (conserves) a collection of artefacts and
other objects of artistic, cultural, historical, or scientific importance. Many public
museums make these items available for public viewing through exhibits that may
be permanent or temporary The largest museums are located in major cities
throughout the world, while thousands of local museums exist in smaller cities,
towns and rural areas.

11. INTRODUCTION
A planetarium is a theatre built primarily for presenting educational and
entertaining shows about astronomy and the night sky, or for training in celestial
navigation.
A dominant feature of most planetarium is the large dome-shaped projection
screen onto which scenes of stars, planets and other celestial objects can be
made to appear and move realistically to simulate the complex 'motions of the
heavens'. The celestial scenes can be created using a wide variety of technologies,
for example precision-engineered 'star balls' that combine optical and electro-
mechanical technology, slide projector, video and fulldome projector systems, and
lasers

12. DEFINITION:
“An apparatus or model representing the planetary system.”
“A device that produces a representation of the heavens by the use
of a number of moving projectors.”
“The building or room in which such a device is housed.”
12-09-2017 [T.M.C.O.N] 12

13. PURPOSE OF PLANETARIUM LAB
 to delight in astronomy
 to look up
 The planetarium is space time machine
 Stimulate measurement we could not make in a short space of time
 To learn to write precisely about something technical & detailed
 From a few simple measurement, obtain complex understanding

14. TYPES OF PLANETARIUM
 Early Planetariums
 Portable pictures of the starry sky painted on the inside of a sphere or dome, or
mechanical models of the solar system
 Planetariums imitating the movement of planets around the sun were built inside
clocks. They showed the revolution of moons around their planets.
 During this time, one of the first planetariums, known as the gottor p globe
 The principal part of the planetarium was a hollow copper sphere
 10.2 feet (3.1 m) in diameter with a table and a curved bench for 12 people inside
it.
 In the early 18th century, a model planetarium known as an orrerynamed for the
earl of orrery, an irish nobleman who had one made in 1712was built.

15.  Mechanical Projectors
 The first modern planetarium was built at the Zeiss optical works in
Jena, Germany, about 1924.
 This device known as Mark I, installed at the Deutsches Museum
 It was mounted inside a dome 32 feet (10 m) in diameter.
 The Adler Planetarium, built in Chicago in 1930, was the first major
planetarium in the United States.
 A concave metal sphere known as a star ball used 31 lenses to show
images of 4,500 stars on the dome.
 Seven additional projectors attached to the ball created images of the
sun, the moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn.
 It replicated the movement of the solar bodies relative to the stars.

16.  Digital Projectors
 Computers use a code of numbers or digits to process information.
 a planetarium with computerized projectors is known as a digital
planetarium.
 The mechanical projectors are able to show the stars as seen from only
one region of space our solar system.
 digital a computer creates images on video screens.
 Digital planetariums also present shows for entertainment.
 For instance, they can be used for a display of animated, computer-
generated art, accompanied by a musical sound track.

17. ROLE OF PLANETARIUM IN EDUCATION
Since planetariums have been described critically in the current US presidential
campaign, the International Planetarium Society welcomes the opportunity to clarify the
role of planetariums in the American and worldwide educational systems.
Planetariums are domed theaters that project images of the starry sky and countless
spectacular objects we find in our universe, creating educational experiences that teach
astronomy and related sciences. The star projectors that show the night sky itself are
among the most durable, versatile, and cost-effective of educational tools.
Planetariums are the world's astronomy classrooms and theaters of public science
education that have served perhaps a billion people during the past century. The world's
3000 planetariums are found in schools, colleges and universities, and museums and
science centers in all 50 US states and in over 100 countries around the world.
