Discover the secrets of the Inner solar system, where we follow in the footsteps of rocky planets and examine what makes Earth, Mercury, and Mars so special

The Studio's 180-degree guided projection allows you to enter a 3D space where you can fly among the stars, discover planets, and peer into the depths of galaxies— all based on real-time scientific data and supplemented with interactive visualizations. During the screening, the celestial bodies of the Solar System, the mysterious world of pulsars, and the structure of galaxies will be revealed in a level of detail that has rarely been seen before.

Our Solar System consists of eight planets, which can be divided into two large groups: the inner and outer regions. In this presentation, we will travel to the world of rocky planets—where the conditions for life are uniquely complete. We will examine what makes Earth so special, how the magnetosphere surrounding our planet protects us, and why this is vital for protection against radiation from the Sun.

The series will feature extreme Mercury, the scorching and cautionary example of Venus, and rusty Mars, which may once have been much more similar to us than we think today. We understand what the habitable zone means and why the distance from the star, the atmosphere, and the magnetic field are such decisive factors.

This presentation is not only about planets, but also about how fragile and exceptional our home is in cosmic space. 

Behind the scenes, state-of-the-art technology is at work: every projection is based on scientifically verified data, including data from the James Webb Space Telescope, the Voyager probes, and the latest astronomical research. During the Xbox controller-managed presentation, you can always see the planets in their current positions—where it is nighttime, the sky is dark in the image, and you can even observe the Aurora Borealis in real time in the northern hemisphere of the Earth. Part of the experience is that you can "visit" the International Space Station, following its trajectory and observing how it orbits our planet.

The 3D glasses and spatial sound provide such a realistic experience that you feel as if you are actually floating in space, while discovering the structure and infinite dynamics of the universe.

Each presentation is led by an information trainer who helps you discover the infinite faces of the world with exciting stories and interesting facts. This experience is both inspiring and thought-provoking: it helps us get closer to the vast world of which we are a small part.

The Studio's films deal with educational topics that are less or enjoyable for younger children, and in some cases may even be frightening, so viewing is recommended for ages 6 and up.
