Shineman Planetarium
About
Shineman Planetarium in Oswego is a fully digital Spitz planetarium with a 24-foot projection dome. The system has a 180-degree field of view and a built-in 5.1 surround sound system, so a show feels like a trip through space rather than a slide presentation, with the sky wrapped around the audience.
The planetarium is actively used in teaching and educational outreach, and it seats 35 people, which keeps shows intimate. It serves the campus and the surrounding community. Oswego is a Lake Ontario city and home to SUNY Oswego, and this is one of the more unusual stops in town.
