Planetarium Aboriginal Astronomy

Sydney & Surrounds

Explore Indigenous Australian astronomy in this fascinating mobile Planetarium show.

European night sky stories are familiar to many people. However the Aboriginal stories of the southern skies are less well known.

Stories in the Stars shows children a new way—the oldest way—of looking at the night sky.

Highlights

  • Explore Indigenous Australian astronomy in this fascinating mobile Planetarium show
  • Find out how indigenous culture describes constellations that can’t be seen from northern latitudes
  • Even Constellations that can be seen from Europe appear in a different way in the sky in the southern hemisphere
All domes are now equipped with a HEPA air purification system.
