The planetarium in Fortaleza "Planetário Rubens de Azevedo" in Brazil will soon be utilizing the latest Zeiss hybrid technology for its presentations. At the end of August, our technicians installed a new SKYMASTER ZKP 4 planetarium projector with LED illumination. The previous SKYMASTER will move to a new location and will continue to provide brilliant stars and other celestial objects. The new two-channel VELVET fulldome system not only replaces the more than eight-year-old system, but with its black background in the image, it is the perfect complement to the SKYMASTER ZKP 4. With powerdome both systems work coupled for a synchronous display of the star field and digital overlays. The planetarium in Fortaleza now also uses WorldWide Telescope for powerdome for virtual journeys into the universe and will open its new era of educational work with a series of new fulldome shows.
