The shows at the planetarium are “Hayabusa Back to the Earth” and “A Planet for Goldilocks.”

The first chronicles the journey of Hayabusa, a Japanese space probe that was sent to collect samples from an asteroid in an attempt to discover secrets of our solar system. The latter is about the techniques astronomers use to find a planet that is suitable for life.

The schedule of shows at the planetarium is linked below.

The planetarium is open on Tuesdays to Sundays. From Tuesday to Saturday, the planetarium has shows at 10:30 a.m., 1:30 p.m., 2:30 p.m. and 4 p.m. Admission is priced at P50 for regular viewers, P30 for students with ID and P40 for senior citizens and PWDs.

Meanwhile, entrance to the National Museum has been free since July 2016.  /ra
