Star Projector on Flickr.
We went to the planetarium tonight to attend a one night event. I was amazed by the guy who ran it - obviously he had a huge passion for astronomy, and even though I’m not a huge astronomy buff, that passion was inspiring. It really made me hope that, one day, I will be that enthusiastic and knowledgeable about something I find interesting, and be able to share my passion with people in the same way that he is.
This is the analogue star projector - it doesn’t plug into any computers at all, and was built in the 1970’s. Amazing piece of machinery!
