Around the World with Planetarium on the Go!

Every year we cover a distance longer than Earth’s perimeter – 40,000 km – bringing space exploration to every corner of Greece and anywhere in the World if invited!

By showing the fascinating discoveries in space exploration, it both inspires and educates people of all ages about our surroundings – the Earth itself and our place in the Universe.

In a time when quality science education is more important than ever, a scientifically literate public is an essential part of the progress of any country.
