A Journey to the Most Extreme Places in the Cosmos

With Our Exotic Universe, PLANET KA in Karlsruhe invites you to an impressive planetarium show that combines science, atmosphere, and cosmic perspective. The performance takes the audience to the limits of the imaginable and shows how closely the great vastness of space is connected to the smallest particles.

Between Star Explosions, Black Holes, and Neutrinos

The production takes you deep into the fascinating world of astrophysics: to the remnants of star explosions, to the edge of massive black holes, and to Antarctica, where specialized instruments detect neutrinos from space. More than 100 researchers from the Collaborative Research Center 1491 contribute to ensure that the journey through the universe is not only visually impressive but also scientifically sound.

An Event Experience with Scientific Depth

The show combines state-of-the-art telescopes, elaborate calculations, and impressive images from the cosmos into a dense event experience. Radio waves, gamma rays, and invisible light become as tangible as the big questions about the origin, energy, and structure of the universe. This mix of expertise and emotion makes the evening so exciting for teenagers from around 14 years old.

PLANET KA as a Suitable Framework

The Planetarium Karlsruhe provides the ideal setting for this immersive experience. The hall is designed for concentrated viewing and amazement, with admission starting 30 minutes before the performance begins. Important for the process: there is no late admission, unused tickets lose their validity. Those who arrive early can start the show in a more relaxed manner and experience the special audience atmosphere from the very beginning.

Organization, Arrival, and Comfort

For visitors, arriving by public transport is particularly convenient, as the planetarium is just a few minutes' walk from the Schloss Gottesaue and Tullastr. / Alter Schlachthof stops. Parking options are also available in the area, and a few spots on the premises can be used after prior reservation. The building is largely accessible and features a ramp as well as an accessible restroom.

Conclusion: Cosmic Images, Clear Thoughts, Strong Impressions

Our Exotic Universe promises an evening that inspires awe while also imparting knowledge. Anyone interested in astronomy, particle physics, and captivating planetarium experiences should secure this date in Karlsruhe and experience the journey through the exotic universe live.
