Among them, Zeiss -9 optical planetarium and the world's highest resolution all-sky digital projection system can not only realistically restore more than 9,000 stars visible to the naked eye on the earth, but also realize virtual sky demonstration, three-dimensional space simulation, digital program playback and other functions for 400 spectators in the venue.
Pavilion B was officially completed and opened at the end of 2004. There are three popular science theaters: Cosmic Theater, 4D Theater and 3D Theater, as well as various popular science education facilities such as Astronomical Exhibition Hall, Solar Observatory, Public Observatory and Astronomical Classroom. Among them, the Cosmic Theater with a radius of18m has a standard hemispherical all-day screen, which can present a magnificent three-dimensional canopy effect for 200 spectators at the same time, which is unique in Chinese mainland.
The 4D Theater and the 3D Theater have 200 seats and 1 16 seats respectively, and both theaters use the most advanced playback equipment and special effects equipment. The 4D theater can not only present vivid three-dimensional images, but also produce various special effects such as water spraying, wind spraying and leg slapping according to the plot development of popular science programs, bringing the audience an immersive and wonderful popular science experience. The 3D cinema has a metal screen with a width of12m and a height of 9m, and is equipped with 45-degree polarized stereoscopic glasses, which presents a vivid and gorgeous stereoscopic effect for the audience, thus truly entertaining and entertaining.

★ Beijing Ancient Observatory
The famous Beijing Ancient Observatory at home and abroad is the Royal Observatory of Ming and Qing Dynasties, which belongs to the Beijing Planetarium. Beijing Ancient Observatory is a national key cultural relic protection unit, and eight ancient astronomical instruments displayed at the top of the Observatory are national first-class cultural relics, which can be called China astronomical national treasure.
The ancient statue of Beijing was built in the seventh year of Ming Dynasty (1442), and it was the National Astronomical Observatory in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. From the early Ming Dynasty to 1929, the ancient observatory has been engaged in astronomical observation for nearly 500 years, which is the oldest existing ancient observatory to maintain continuous observation. It also enjoys a long-term international reputation for its complete architecture and complete equipment.
In addition to China's tradition in modeling, ornamentation and technology, the eight bronze instruments made on the top of the platform also reflect the progress and achievements of large astronomical instruments in scale, watch movement and structure in Western Europe after the Renaissance.
They are historical witnesses of cultural exchanges between the East and the West. After the founding of New China, the Ancient Elephant Station was handed over to the Beijing Planetarium, and now it is a national key cultural relic protection unit.
