Planetarium to Install Upgraded Projectors

The Del and Norma Robison Planetarium will receive new projectors this fall.

The current projectors have a resolution of 2K and were installed when the planetarium first opened in 2014. The new projectors will have 4K resolution, which will significantly improve the visuals for shows and presentations. This project is supported through an advancement fund, which has continued to have donors for the past 10 years.

The planetarium has an annual attendance of roughly 5,000. During the school year, the planetarium hosts free 30-minute shows at 6 p.m. Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays, as well as an hour show for $5 on Saturdays. Topics and titles for the upcoming semester will be determined at a later date. For the most up-to-date schedule of events, visit planetarium.truman.edu.
