It's Showtime!

I have been hearing it for months now, that the old Omni Theater at the Singapore Science Centre was to undergo some renovations to include a planetarium.

Well, the details are out and this blog update provides astronomy enthusiasts with what to expect from the rebirth Omni Theater.

The new theater is now fitted with a full-dome projection system with an 8K digital display to boot! Gone are the times when people just sat in, watched a movie, and left after it has ended. We can now expect a presenter on-site to do a 30-minute real-time presentation for "live shows" to boost the movie experience.

This is a refreshing change and a much welcome addition to the Singapore Science Centre. The revamped Omni Theater will be opened on the 30th of May 2015.

I am eager to catch the full-dome live show "Cosmic Surfing" and the digital full-dome movie "Back To The Moon For Good".
