About the Peter Harrison Planetarium
The Royal Observatory is home to London’s only Planetarium.

Lie back in reclining seats and watch as the dome above you fills with stunning simulations of the night sky. Astronomers can show you the sky as it appears on the date you visit, travel deep into the Universe and display amazing astronomy photography and video. 

Ted's Space Adventure is specifically tailored for younger children, with appealing animation and gentle visual effects: an ideal introduction to the wonders of the Solar System.
