The planetarium runs shows under a 67-foot dome, and monthly Laser Evenings pair light shows with music, from The Best of The Beatles to Gorillaz and Bad Bunny. Visitors also mention an aviary, a mummy exhibit, and a shark tank in their reviews, and the building itself draws comments on its architecture.
