Ghana Planetarium

The Planetarium provides extra-curricular support to the teaching of topics in Maths and Science and helps raise awareness of environmental issues. It has a full-dome planetarium show with some hands-on demonstrations and activities that bring science to life, mainly using everyday materials and waste materials.
 

It has a summer hut which has a number of large astronomy-themed posters, which show the relative sizes of the sun and planets, different kinds of space rocks, planetary rings, an infographic depicting the solar system and space exploration, information about the Milky Way and other galaxies, and a huge, richly-detailed poster about the electromagnetic spectrum.
Other activities at the Planetarium Science Centre include workshops for teachers, outreach visits to schools, astronomy-themed art and craft activities at family events, lectures and discussions at Astronomical Society meetings, dome-casts with other planetariums abroad, and most recently a Robotics club for children.
