A little shooting star on a big search for a home

At the PLANET KA Planetarium Karlsruhe, a magical journey through the solar system begins for families with children aged four and older. Stups, the little shooting star, has lost her home on the comet Rasefix and is now looking for a place where she can stay. The child-friendly story combines imaginative storytelling with initial impressions from astronomy.

With Stups through the solar system

The sun is too hot for Stups, and the moon cannot offer her a new home either. On Saturn, she discovers thousands of shooting star siblings trapped in the planet's rings. Children experience a vivid journey to the sun, moon, comets, and Saturn, while playfully learning that each place in space has its own unique characteristics.

Child-friendly learning experience under the planetarium dome

The family program is aimed at children aged four and older and lasts about 50 minutes. The imaginative plot encourages curiosity, imagination, and asking questions together. As a family experience, the event combines children's laughter, wonder, and fun learning with a first age-appropriate encounter with the cosmos.

Well prepared for the family program

Entry begins about 30 minutes before the event starts. Since no late entry is possible, punctual arrival is worthwhile. Unused tickets become invalid without replacement. The planetarium is located at Alten Schlachthof 4 in Karlsruhe, approximately 250 meters from the Schloss Gottesaue stop and a bit more than 300 meters from the Tullastraße/Alter Schlachthof stop.

Conclusion: Wonder together and discover the cosmos

Stups invites families to a heartwarming story about home, orientation, and the search for the right place. Those who want to combine quality time with a child-friendly learning experience will enjoy a special family experience at PLANET KA between the starry sky and the solar system.
