A new Planetarium opened in the metropolis in 2013, in a purpose-built building in the heart of the Olympic Park, annexed to the Biodôme. Its innovative concept is at one with its reinvented approach, which sets it apart from other planetariums around the world. In addition to its exhibitions, it is above all its immersive shows that draw the crowds, including Un jour sur Mars, a vertiginous immersive experience on the Red Planet. A must-see! Also on site: a souvenir store and an all-vegetarian restaurant.

The Rio Tinto Alcan Planetarium is synonymous with an unparalleled cosmic adventure in a state-of-the-art, environmentally friendly facility. Just a stone's throw from the Biodôme, art, culture and emotion come together to rediscover astronomy from a different angle. You can admire the gigantic van der Heide sundial or the statue of the famous Nicolas Copernicus. The "Passport to the Universe", a 3D film projected in the 360° dome takes you into space, while being comfortably installed in a giant pouffe in the middle of the room. Not to mention the "Continuum", an astronomical theater that will leave you amazed by the beauty of the Milky Way. An immersive and fascinating experience not to be missed.

Pour un billet de 24 dollars, cette brève expérience n'a pas semblé être d'une grande valeur, en particulier pour les familles. Pour une famille de quatre personnes, le coût s'élève à près de 75 dollars, ce qui semble exorbitant pour ce qui est proposé. Heureusement, j'avais acheté pour ma famille le pass 5 musées, qui incluait le Planétarium, mais je peux imaginer que pour quelqu'un qui achèterait un billet uniquement pour cela, le prix ne serait pas justifié.
Je tenais à le signaler pour que d'autres puissent gérer leurs attentes. Si vous prévoyez de visiter le musée, sachez que votre billet couvre principalement le film, qui est agréable mais d'une portée limitée.
