Why not! It may not be a NASA rocket, but our planetarium offers the unique experience of travelling through the universe and through time. Screenings take place several times daily, and we also organise special events led by astronomers.
What distinguishes the planetarium from an ordinary movie theatre is the projection dome enabling a 360° experience – diving into the secrets of the cosmos, getting to know distant constellations, and even descending to the deepest parts of the ocean or enjoying the polar light of the Arctic!
The Moon has been one of the most powerful sights in the night sky for centuries. In its glow, people have seen faces, animals, seas and mysterious landscapes, attributed unusual powers to it, and believed that it influences life on Earth far more than it actually can.
The film “Dark Side(s) of the Moon”, an original work by Branko Simonović, Planetarium Coordinator at the Palace of Science, takes us through some of the most common misconceptions about our closest celestial neighbour. What does the “dark side of the Moon” really mean? Are the “blue”, “wolf”, “pink” or “blood” Moon astronomical terms, or attractive names that often obscure more than they explain?
Starting from ancient perceptions and folk beliefs, and moving all the way to contemporary sensationalist interpretations, the film sheds light on those “dark sides” of the Moon that are not actually in the sky, but in our understanding. Through a combination of astronomy, history and critical thinking, audiences discover how misconceptions arise, why they persist, and how science can clarify them without taking away the beauty of the sight itself.
The film will be on the programme from Saturday, 20 June 2026. The film is in Serbian and is recommended for audiences aged 17+.

Like almost all children, Celeste is fascinated with dinosaurs. She is preparing a talk for her class about how they went extinct when Moon, a very wise and magical character, poses a tantalizing question: what if I told you that there are still dinosaurs among us?
Celeste will join Moon in a journey through time, and exciting adventure that will show them the Earth as it was in the very, very distant past.
They will see the fascinating transformations that these animals underwent over millions of years, creating giant creatures, armored beasts and super predators, until the day that a cataclysmic impact event caused a mass extinction on Earth.
But all is not lost. Celeste will discover the key to their survival.
The film is dubbed in Serbian. Recommended age: 5+ years.
The starry sky, its phases, and constellations are the focus of the first part of this projection. This concise overview of astrognosy introduces us to the basic constellations and asterisms of our sky, teaches us how to navigate using a “celestial compass” and presents the appearance of the starry sky throughout the year. In the second part, we embark on a visually striking journey through the Solar System – from the Sun and the Moon to the distant planets.
The author of this educational projection, created at the Planetarium of the Palace of Science, is Branko Simonović, a popularizer of astronomy.
The projection is recommended for ages 12 and above.
Do you know the origin of the word astronaut?
The word "astronaut" comes from the ancient Greek words for star and sailor (astron and nautes).
No wonder we invented planetariums - who wouldn't want to sail among the stars, even if they're not an astronaut!
