Astronomy

Do you want to know everything about the universe? We are happy to tell you more about it!

In collaboration with the Kapteyn Institute (research institute for Astronomy), we organize all kinds of inspiring activities.

We would like to visit your school with the Kapteyn mobile planetarium. A mobile planetarium is an inflatable dome in which you can sit with the whole class to admire the starry sky and take a virtual journey through the universe.

You can also visit us with your class for a tour of the Blaauw Observatory, astronomy workshops and guided tours in the Science LinX exhibition.

And it's also possible to visit one of the DOT Dome Cinema Live Planetarium Shows at Vrydemalaan 2 in Groningen, about varying themes, with projections surrounding you completely in a dome of 20 meters in diameter.

You can also visit us with your class for fun workshops. Or follow a youth course in Astronomy (8 to 12 years).
