Four nights a month, just after sunset, the planetarium at Granada's Science Park becomes an astronomical observatory with all eyes - and binoculars and telescopes - focused on the sky to identify the stars, the moon and the planets that are visible on that particular night.

We also recommended taking a guided tour through the Garden of Astronomy, where you'll find clocks, solar calendars, models and other ideas for following the daily and annual movements of the stars. And, of course, it's quite an experience to visit the planetarium and, looking up at the over 7,000 stars projected on the domed ceiling, watch events take place in just a few minutes which, in reality, take hours, months or even years to unfold.

The planetarium is part of the Science Park; here, the layman is invited to learn about some of the most important scientific ideas in the history of mankind by means of simple and informative displays. One highlight among the permanent exhibitions is the Biosphere room, where you can find out about about human DNA and how life began on Earth. You can step inside a giant kaleidoscope in the Perception room, experience the invisible strength and power of the wind in the Eureka room, play with science in the Exploration room, as well as learning about the Al-Andalus legacy and viewing a tropical butterfly farm.
