As the planetarium world looks back and celebrates its first Centennial, we are also keenly aware to define what the next 100 years of the planetarium field will be. Join our panel of experts as they envision what the second century of planetariums could look like - for primary, secondary, and higher educational facilities; for facilities with multiple theaters; for mobile planetariums; for content creators and science visualizers; and for a worldwide community that is more connected than ever before.
