This architectural marvel designed by Santiago Calatrava was conceived as a very special cinema and planetarium. Here the spectator can in the same space experience the sensations of a conventional planetarium while enjoying the images offered in IMAX format. Its astronomic projection system is controlled by computers in order to produce a complete representation of the sky and the planets on a surface that is 24 meters in diameter and at a 30-degree angle. The clear, sharp images projected, along with the size of the screen and the quality of the sound, achieve an exceptional realism that will transport the audience into the next galaxy. Admission: EUR8; children, senior citizens and students, discounts apply.
