Overview

The Zeiss Planetarium Projection System is a groundbreaking device used to project images of celestial objects onto a dome in a planetarium, first designed and built by Carl Zeiss Jena in the 1920s. This innovative technology has since evolved to include various features such as fixed stars, planets, and nebulae, with companies like Spitz, Goto, and Minolta contributing to its development. The system has also been integrated with other technologies like the OMNIMAX movie system, now known as IMAX Dome, to create immersive astronomical experiences.
