Planetarium, Texas, United States

4.0 (2 reviews) Spent Ranking #10 in Edinburg Observatories & Planetariums

Unique and informative experience

This place is a great place to go to learn about space and planets. The staff is very knowledgeable and are willing to help with anything you may need or have questions about. They actually get excited about people asking them questions. In return, it makes you excited to learn all theyes have to explain. They have a lot titles and topics of videos you can watch and if the weather allows,they will also take out telescopes so that you can do some star gazing. Had a lot of fun and will definitely be going back to watch some more videos.

    Could be fantastic - needs an upgrade
    At £14 per head I expected an experience at least on par with the local cinema. Unfortunately the overhead screen in the snow dome lacked any clarity and the second show put me to sleep. The time to upgrade the projectors is well overdue (by at least 7 years). This could be awesome but instead is incredibly disappointing. With tv shows regarding the planet now available in UltraHD, Dynamic Earth needs to take a really hard look at itself before it too becomes extinct. The 3D show was good but the glasses were not that great (maybe just needed a clean). Staff were all excellent.
