10 short astrophysical FD shows

Abstract

The installation of a digital planetarium called Unisphere was completed at the Institute of Physics of the Silesian University in Opava in 2019. This academic planetarium is mainly used for educational purposes in shows focussing on astrophysics. One of the first projects the creative group is working on is the production of 10 short fulldome shows on very advanced astrophysical topics. The main motivation for the creation of these shows and the choice of astrophysical topics is the effort to popularise the work of scientists directly from our department. Commercial production companies do not include such topics in their shows. The shows are aimed at high school students and the general public interested in astrophysics. One of them was also presented at the Fulldome Festival in Brno and GDP 2023 in Solingen
