Galileo Galilei Planetarium

Completely renovated, the Planetarium is one of the city's must-see attractions.

It is the main center for astronomy outreach in the city. It features a hemispherical projection room with 360 reclining seats and a dome 20 meters in diameter, where nearly 8,900 stars, planets, and satellites of the universe are projected, thanks to an impressive system (the only one of its kind in Latin America) containing six Sky-Skan projectors with 8K resolution, meaning the dome holds 38 million pixels.

The five-story building also includes a museum and a small secondary projection room, as well as a collection of meteorites from northern Argentina. In the adjacent lake, you’ll find the sculpture "Sorprendida" by Italian artist Nicolás A. Ferrari, and a few meters away, a monolith in honor of the Polish scholar Nicolaus Copernicus.

Location: Intersection of Avenida General Sarmiento and Belisario Roldán, within the Tres de Febrero Park in the Palermo neighborhood of Buenos Aires, surrounded by nature, with swans and ducks swimming on the body of water that reflects the famous dome of the Planetarium, which rises majestically in the background.
