Overview
The design of the Shafran Planetarium building allows its exterior to function as an astronomical instrument. Nighttime visitors can use the building's angled roof to locate Polaris, the North Star, around which all other stars in the sky appear to rotate. The building's titanium-coated, stainless-steel outer covering sparkles with stars created by embedded fiber-optic lighting. This system emits a subtle glow without contributing to the light pollution above University Circle. Inside, the domed planetarium theater offers comfortable, stadium-style seating for 87 and is wheelchair accessible.
