4 star season tickets to the Planetarium and Astronomical Museum.

Fri, 09 May 2008 14:01:57 GMT

A season ticket valid for six months is now on sale, offering 4 shows for the price of 3 plus additional discounts on the entire Civic Museums of Rome network. It means that the chance to experience something rather special beneath the star spangled ceiling of the Planetarium is even more affordable. The season ticket can be purchased at the ticket office of the Planetarium and Astronomical Museum, and holders can see four different astronomical shows for the price of three...a total cost of €19.50 instead of €26.00 for the full price ticket and €13.50 instead of €18.00 for concessions. The season ticket is valid for six months from the date of issue and entitles holders, on production of their card at the time of purchase, to other discounts throughout the entire network of Rome's Civic Museums including reduced entrance fees to the network's museums and exhibitions and a 10% discount in the bookshops. It makes the opportunity to marvel at the stars, choosing from more than 60 different astronomic shows – divided into 4 categories - even more accessible.
Celestial Vistas: for those who would like to know more about the fascinating world of astronomy.
Open Universes: for those who would like to know more about particular scientific topics within the fields of planetology, cosmology and astrophysics.
Impacts: for those drawn to the history, mythology and art that is hidden amongst the stars.
Playing with the stars: for children of all ages who would like Doctor Stellarium to take them on a journey of discovery in search of some of the skies most fascinating secrets.

Another exciting aspect to the Planetarium is the introduction of music through the astronomic concerts and automated shows that tell of Roman nights, the Breath of the cosmos and Martian Holidays. Rome's Planetarium is a veritable astronomic theatre where astrophiles, science aficionados and anybody the slightest bit curious about the Universe can immerse themselves in the fascinating world of astronomy and dive into a sky crammed with pulsating stars.

4 star season tickets to the Planetarium and Astronomical Museum.
€ 19,50 full price

The works of art have been created by the artist in Carrara marble, bronze and black granite.

Except 1 October - 18 October: tuesday-sunday 9.00am - 6.00pm
