PROJECTION: 2D

Since the beginning of time, the balance of the universe has rested upon a war unseen by human eyes … a crusade that wages until this very day … THE VOID, an ancient and malevolent being, leads his vast army of anti-matter wages war against all matter.  On the other hand, THE CORE is a wise and benevolent being and sends his children, photons, to fight against THE VOID and his anti-matters.  A young photon named DAVE refuses to embark on the quest with the rest of photons.  Only until one day, THE RANGER, a ghost particle pleads for his help to deliver a mysterious gem to Cassini Space Core Commander to save trillions upon trillions lives of photons.  Hesitant but without a choice, Dave agrees to carry on the mission that bears the fate of the struggle …

The categorization of dwarf planets sets the world in two parts … one who loved Pluto as planet and the others who preferred simpler cataloging of celestial bodies … Dwarf planets are the worlds too small to be considered as full-fledged planets, but large enough to be classified as asteroids.  These are the ancient relics of our solar system.  They were born the same way as our eight planets, but somehow along the way, they stopped developing further.  These embryonic planets holds the key to the secrets of planetary evolution.  Today 5 small bodies fits the category of dwarf planets, but there are more waiting to join the list.  Our advanced probes like ‘New Horizon’ and ‘Dawn’ are seeking the unknown.  Let’s take a glimpse of the wee class of dwarf planets in our full dome show, Pursuing the Dwarfs.

The yearly world cup of body painting, taking place in Austria, is a must see event for art community.  A very special part of this event is the  body painting with luminous colours.  This painting is only visible with infra light.  This will be demonstrated in a fantastic and entertaining show!

Until now, astronomers have only been able to hypothesize about what Pluto looks like.  A team from the Montreal Rio Tinto Alcan Planetarium went to Arizona last spring to visit the legendary Lowell Observatory and film some 360° immersive images of the historic telescope that discovered Pluto in 1930, along with some of the most beautiful skies visible from Earth.  Pluto: Chronicles of an Ex-Planet is an immersive experience telling the story of this intriguing dwarf planet that continues to fascinate us even today.

This is a wildlife feast that feature the migratory animals of the Straits of Gibraltar or the Pillars of Hercules (as it was formerly known), the border between Africa and Europe.  From the dawn of history, battles have been waged in these seas.  Today, one of them is still on each season – the fishing of red tuna in their migratory route through these waters.  This entails an intense fight between two competitors – the Moroccan fishermen and the greatest predator in the oceans, the orca.  Each year in their flight, more than 300 million of birds challenge the strongest westerly and easterly winds to head here for their winter shelters.  Will they all be able to achieve this?  For the other animal species, their migration to this land was either coincidental or compulsory, as pets or as bargaining chip between trading Arabs of Phoenicians.  Whatever the reason, the result is that these chameleons, tortoises, mongooses, and genets are all part of a legacy.  Today, they have become typical species from the south of Spain, some of them being unique representatives of their species in Europe.

Origins of Life deals with some of the most profound questions of life science: the origins of life and the human search for life beyond Earth.

Starting with the Big Bang, in chronological order, the show deals with the prebiotic chemistry in the Universe, the formation of stars, formation of solar systems, and the first life on Earth.  Furthermore, Origins of Life covers the great extinctions as well as our search for (primitive) life beyond planet Earth.

Origins of Life is a inspirational journey through time and a celebration of life on Earth.  It features many recent discoveries related to life science, demonstrating that if there was ever a time that science made its greatest advances, it’s right now!

An extraordinary phenomenon is taking place in the Pacific Ocean: The formation of a new island from an undersea volcanic eruption.

Located 1,000 km from Tokyo, Nishinoshima island suddenly emerged in 2013.  It is still expanding rapidly and has already become the biggest newly-born island in historic record.  Scientists are saying that this exceptional event could literally blow away previous understanding of volcanology, and solve the mystery of how continents are made.

But field investigation is nearly impossible, since the new island is strictly off limits due to the volcanic hazard.  To overcome these issues, NHK has launched a bold project to seize this very rare opportunity and help scientists solve the unknown facets of the island.  The mission involves filming this natural spectacle from the air, land and sea in stunning 4K resolution images using remote control machines, while collecting important scientific data.

Witness this once-in-a-lifetime experience of the “birth of land” in this grand science adventure documentary.

Join the young Charles Darwin on an adventurous voyage of exploration circumnavigating the World with the HMS Beagle.  In the 19th century in Victorian times many physical phenomena were already discovered and described by natural laws, but life’s most eloquent mechanism was still unknown: how could new species arise to replace those lost in extinction?  It was time for someone to come forth with a Naturalist explanation of this mystery of mysteries.

During the special exhibition of “Landscape Reunited: Huang Gongwang and Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountain,” Child Pillow goes over to the exhibition hall just like anyone else to see the legendary national treasure.  Out of nowhere, he is invited by the scholar in the painting to step into “Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains!”  In this Chinese style painting, Child Pillow encounters a little white pony from “one hundred horses” who is searching for its shadow.  Both of them return to exhibition hall, and the courageous Child Pillow promise to find the shadow for the little white pony.  However, when wondering in the exhibition hall, Child Pillow collides with Pixie and Jade Duck, and at the same time, crushes the famous calligraphy “Scent of Flowers Wafting.”  Now they are in big trouble …
