One of the main attractions of the city Mumbai is the Nehru Planetarium which has always been a pleasant learning experience for the visitors. The Planetarium aims at spreading the knowledge of Science and Astronomy through various events and programs which are both a part of learning as well as entertainment for the viewers. It is also a great place to be visited for the kids who get to know a lot about the space and satellites of our country. The architecture of the Nehru Planetarium is very unique and is sure to take away your heart in the first go. The beautifully made white dome and the cylindrical structure of the building are exquisite in the eyes of the visitors. The Planetarium has several informative shows for their visitors which have been luring the tourists since ages. “Awesome universe” is the current show that runs in the Planetarium which is a 45 minutes presentation on heavenly wonders and cosmic journey. The utmost attraction of the place is that you can calculate your weight in nine different planets of our solar system with the help of the cubicles. There is a Science Complex just adjacent to the planetarium where you can view a 14 minute show known as the Discovery of India. It shows us the journey of our country through the ages. There are 14 galleries which showcase several artistic works, audio visuals and photographs which often are the attractions for the students.

Inaugurated on 3rd March 1977 by Indira Gandhi, the then Prime Minister of India, the Nehru Planetarium is a part of the Nehru Centre in Mumbai. The Centre pragmatically promotes the teaching and thoughts of Pt. Jawaharlal Nehru through its cultural and educational events. The Planetarium strives to infuse and spread the knowledge about Astronomy and Science through prodigious lectures, discussions and events, ensuring an enriching experience, both in learning and entertainment.nIf space and science intrigues you, Nehru Planetarium is a place to visit during your stay in Mumbai, and of course, it is a great place to take your kids along!
