I love how mysterious this looks, and how threatening. It looks like a spaceship from outer space about to land. It is none of these, however. It is a Goto Planetarium Projector at the Vanderbilt Planetarium. It projects the night sky onto the 60 foot diameter dome. It was installed when the planetarium was first built in 1969. We had a lecture on the operation of this incredibly complex machine, tonight, and it was fascinating. Click on it to see better color, please.
