Ulugbek Planetarium

The Ulugbek Planetarium in the capital of Uzbekistan, Tashkent, is a wonderful place where you can get knowledge about astronomy and space and look at the stars even in the daytime.

The planetarium in Tashkent is located in a building that was built in 2003. It was specially equipped for the observation of space bodies.

The planetarium consists of two halls. One is an exhibition (which introduces your collection), and the other is for show.
The exhibition hall's opening was dedicated to the International Year of Astronomy, which was declared in 2009 by UNESCO. There are paintings and photographs of celestial coordinates and the planets of the solar system.

In a representative hall is equipment that helps you see the starry sky and learn about the solar system. The planetarium is equipped with the latest technology and modern facilities, thanks to a Japan Grant.

Here, you can learn everything about the new planet, called "Sedna" (2005), with a diameter of 2,000 km, which was given the name in honor of the Inuit goddess of the ocean. In the next 60–70 years, this planet will gradually come closer to Earth. It allows us to learn more about this planet.

By the way, in 2008, one of the scientists discovered a new planet, which he called "Samarkand."

With the help of a projector, you have the opportunity to watch meteors, comets, black holes, see the Northern Lights, and other signs of the zodiac.

The Ulugbek Planetarium was erected behind the circus building in front of the "Chorsu" market. A beautiful and modern building with translucent walls of tinted glass, decorated with images of space bodies. It does not leave Uzbek residents or visitors indifferent.

The main aims of the planetarium are to do organizational work to attract people and pay their attention to astronomy.

In the planetarium, they regularly hold excursions for everyone.
