Mice and the Moon

A tale about two little mice, Pip and Chip

We're pleased to announce a new show: Mice and the Moon. This immersive fulldome video, a fanciful tale for curious kids of all ages, comes from Fulldome Basement, our newest partner, from Minsk, Belarus.

Pip and Chip wondered, "Does anybody bite the big Moon Cheese shining in the sky?"

The Bats didn't know the answer; neither did the Wise Owl.

But luckily Pip and Chip met two astronomy-savvy robots who explained what the Moon really is. They told about the Moon's maria — seas without water or Moon fish. They showed the Moon's craters through the telescope.

Pip and Chip were impressed; they wished they could fly to the Moon one day!

Join Pip and Chip here!

EXOPLANETS - Discovering New Worlds

Welcome to the Great Age of Extrasolar Planet Finding!

We're pleased to announce a new show: EXOPLANETS - Discovering New Worlds. This immersive fulldome video blends science, documentary-style storytelling, and a touch of science fiction into a compelling look at our search for planets around alien worlds.

It's a timely, up-to-date look at the hunt for extrasolar planets. So far, astronomers have found thousands of alien worlds, ranging from hot Jupiters to super-Earths. Discovering extrasolar planets is one thing; finding places that might be hospitable to life is the next challenge.

This show explains the search methods astronomers employ at both ground- and space-based observatories, detailing the CoRoT, Kepler, and TESS missions. It takes audiences on imaginative journeys to possible worlds where life may someday be found.

Explore the latest in exoplanet detection methods and the search for habitable worlds.

This show was inspired by Albedo Fulldome's Extrasolar Planets - discovering new worlds, and replaces it in our lineup.
