Peter Harrison Planetarium, Digital planetarium at Royal Observatory Greenwich, London, United Kingdom
The Peter Harrison Planetarium contains a 120-seat theater with a domed screen displaying astronomical content through advanced laser projection technology.
The planetarium began operations in 2007 as part of a £17.7 million development project at the Royal Observatory, funded by Peter Harrison Foundation.
The facility serves as an educational center where astronomers present live shows about celestial phenomena, space exploration, and astronomical discoveries.
The planetarium offers multiple daily shows with separate pricing for adults, children, and students, requiring advance booking through their online reservation system.
The bronze-clad structure tilts at 51.5 degrees to match Greenwich's latitude, while its top aligns with the celestial equator.
