National Planetarium

The National Planetarium was established to disseminate astronomical information through various platforms and technology, such as full-dome digital and mobile planetarium shows, lectures, demonstrations, exhibitions, and actual celestial observations.

The gallery at the National Planetarium entitled “Filipino Life Guided by Skies” focuses not only in modern astronomy but primarily in ethnoastronomy practices used by our Filipino cultural communities.  This ethnoastronomy exhibition is divided into six sections, namely: The Cosmic Timeline, Cultural Astronomy, Philippine Night Sky, Time Reckoning, Farming and Hunting, and Seafaring and Navigation.
