Have you ever wanted to bring the night sky to your school? The Spartanburg Science Center is home to a StarLab inflatable planetarium that travels around to schools and other events. Our StarLab shows students the constellations, the planets, moon phases, and more. Each StarLab presentation lasts 30 minutes and can accommodate 25 students at a time. To book StarLab please email your inquiry to jschmid@spartanburgsciencecenter.org.
StarLab is a large inflatable dome with a projector inside that shows different night sky variations on the ceiling of the dome. You must have a large area in which we can set the StarLab up. The dome is 12 feet wide and 12 feet high. We recommend a gym or a large classroom with empty floor space. The setup cost is $150, which includes your first 30-minute lesson for 25 students. All additional sessions will be $75 per 30 minutes for 25 students.
