The planetarium moved to Olympic Park in 2013 from its long-time location downtown. The planetarium has two theaters: one show is focused on science, and the other is focused on the poetic majesty of the stars. Most shows are in French, but nine a day were in English at last visit. Architecturally, it’s a stunning building, with arcs and curves and a metal exterior that evoke Frank Gehry's Guggenheim Museum Bilbao.
