Notice to the friends of the Planetarium

Dear visitors of the Planetarium,

as you may have noticed, on January 28, 2014 the Planetarium and Museo Astronomico was temporarily closed, with the Museo della Civiltà Romana, due to necessary renovation work to the building, in order to assure compliance with the current security norms.

We apologize with all visitors for the inconvenience.

In the meantime, the astronomers are working to reshape the activities of the Planetarium upon other facilities of the Musei in Comune network, according to what human and technical resources will be made available. We believe that during the closing period it is important to preserve the identity and the cultural offer of the Planetarium, as well as its relationship with the public.

The solutions to continue our educational and outreach programs are now under evaluation; we will keep you informed as soon as possible.

See you under the stars,

The Planetarium staff
