All the STARLAB details . . .

Consisting of a silver fabric dome, a projector, a fan, and a vast array of projection cylinders, and supported with training and ample curriculum, STARLAB creates a unique learning environment for virtually every level of education. Although it known as the premier portable planetarium, STARLAB can be used for far more than just astronomy. Best of all, STARLAB can be handled by one person and set up right in the classroom, or gym, or auditorium, or cafeteria . . .

It is an ideal learning tool for:

  • Teachers looking for ways to convey concepts from a wide variety of disciplines through interactive, hands-on and minds-on lessons.
  • Administrators requiring cost-effective ways of committing resources to benefit students in all disciplines and levels.
  • Professors concerned with accuracy and precision, and who require powerful equipment to teach sophisticated concepts.
  • Museums looking for effecive tools for community outreach and fundraising.
  • Camps seeking fun yet educational programs for rainy days, nights, or to round out their daily programs.
  • Individuals looking for a unique opportunity to start their own educational business.
  • Students of all ages who appreciate exciting, interactive approached to learning new concepts.

With the STARLAB Portable Planetarium developed by Learning Technologies, you can count on:

  • Support: A STARLAB purchase comes with everything you need to run a successful program — all of the equipment, written instructions, training, and curriculum.
  • Community: With a STARLAB purchase you become part of a community of users — people who share an excitement and common purpose. Users who have over the years, contributed so much to LTI in terms of curriculum development, cylinder ideas, new and interesting applications, workshops and product improvements. Many of these ideas are highlighted in the free user newsletter, The STARLAB News.
  • Service: Manufactured in the LTI factory in Massachusetts, technical help, customer service, production and administration are only a phone call away. With dealers and representatives in the U.S. and throughout the world, sales demonstrations and training are widely available.
  • Ease of Use: The system is compact enough to fit into most small cars, manageable enough to be set up by one person, portable enough to be set up right in a classroom.
  • Innovation: The unique design of the dome, the precision and simplicity of the projector, and the exciting variety of projection cylinders combine to create a complete teaching environment.
