During the day the general public can attend a combined 3-D space theatre show and telescope viewing (weather permitting). Each tour is guided by an astronomer and lasts for 60 minutes. In the day time visitors can view the moon, Venus, bright stars and safely view the Sun using a special solar telescope.
In the 3-D theatre visitors watch a 3-D show and then interact with the astronomer while viewing recent images from Mars and Saturn, or taking a trip through the solar system.
