Today, space travel is becoming more and more familiar.
What kind of scenery would you enjoy if you could actually go on a tour to space?
You will surely want to take a picture of the scenery.
What photos do you want to take in space and what hashtags do you want to share?
This is the first LED dome planetarium work that allows you to take pictures. We will take you on a space trip around the “shining” space attractions.
After the main screening, there is also a shooting time where you can move freely in the dome. This is the only LED dome work that allows you to take pictures in outer space!
DYNAVISION (R)-Enjoy the beautiful appearance of the universe with the stunning visual beauty unique to LEDs.
The space probe Voyager, which jumped out of the earth in 1977, has left the solar system and continues a lonely journey into unprecedented outer space.

The Hiroshima Museum of Art is hosting the exhibition “ZIPANGU: Contemporary Artists Who Defined the Heisei Era” (November 2, 2024 – December 22, 2024).

The exhibition has already garnered significant attention, exceeding 10,000 visitors.
HYAKKEI covered the dialogue between contemporary artist Takashi Murakami and Sueo Mizuma, the curator of this exhibition, held at the RIHGA Royal Hotel Hiroshima. We also conducted an exclusive interview with Mr. Mizuma.
