Astronomy Shows for Schools - Awe & Wonder - Maintaining Social Distance
-
We bring ALL the excitement
All the AWE & Wonder
of a Planetarium show
But with Social Distancing
Auriga Astronomy realise that with current restrictions a Mobile Planetarium can only operate at 1/2 capacity which may be problematical in terms of time.
SO we have created the UK's FIRST 'proper' Astronomy Cinema Stage Show designed to have the same Impact, generate the same enthusiasm that YOU WANT, but whilst maintaining Covid-19 safety guidelines.
Our Shows are NOT Illustrated Lectures, they are a light and sound experience, still presenter led, with the same high quality videos you expect from us.
-
All our Show content
Rear Screen Projected!!*
We know YOU WANT the same quality presentations from us - WE CAN still deliver them!
We know YOU WANT to add Awe & Wonder to your science lessons - WE CAN still do this!
Because we create our own movies in full HD 16:9 [widescreen] format, we can show our entire catalogue of video's on a stage.
We are the ONLY Mobile Planetarium to convert to a Cinema stage format!
We are the ONLY UK
ASTRONOMY STAGE SHOW!
* nIf the room cannot be darkened we use a special front screen designed for light rooms.

In these difficult times
Many of the exciting activities we like to do, are on hold
This is why we have created something Special
YOU can give to your Students to continue their ENRICHMENT!
Our Stage Shows can be delivered to a few or a few hundred people

The PERFECT Solution to maintaining AWE & WONDER in the Post Covid World!
ALL the EXCITEMENT while maintaining Social Distancing
WE SPECIALISE IN
High QUALITY Entertaining and Educational productions
In House Movie Production
We create our own full 1080pHD widescreen movies.
This has enabled us to react quickly to the changes forced upon us by Covid-19.
We can now show ANY of our Films either in our Planetarium or On our 4m wide rear projection screen
A Brand you can Trust!
We have been producing high quality Astronomical Education productions since 2002.
You can be assured that we will give your students a stimulating and highly educational presentation that will leave them buzzing and anxious to learn more
Coronavirus
Covid-19 has changed the world
We all need to produce new working practices until things normalise
This is why we have spent weeks and resources to create our new, social distancing safe productions. We know you still want us to continue supplying our Quality Service to Schools
YouTube
We have the largest YouTube presence of ANY UK Astronomy Education business.
Our YouTube channel provides information on various astronomical subjects.
Designed to support both Teachers, Students and Home educators
Giant Screen
We use the largest Screen possible for our shows.
In both the Planetarium and on stage our 4m wide 16:9 screen ensures a spectacular experience.
We use a full AV sound and effects production to add the AWE & WONDER to the event...but we do NOT use SMOKE or STROBE lighting!
Flexible costing
As we move forward and until student have fully returned, we appreciate that flexibility is the new 'norm' therefore our Cinema Stage shows are priced to be extremely flexible.

Astronomy Cinema Stage Shows for Schools
What we can offer
Our shows are NOT a bloke giving a lecture
Our shows are NOT a film or slide show
We offer a professionally created Full Audio Visual
Presenter led (in costume) Experience for your students!
Full Wireless PA system, and musical soundtrack
We Use Lighting effects and Themed Helium Balloons, to add drama, BUT NOT Smoke or Strobes!

WHAT CUSTOMERS ARE SAYING about our standards of work
-
Our client are telling us they want our services, but social distancing and low student numbers are an issue.
So we created the Cinema stage shows, to allow for social distancing, and allow more flexibility with our timetables to solve the student number issues.
We can give shows to individual groups OR the whole school at once, and as with our planetarium, give different shows to different groups

Dave our presenter/Owner is a UK member of Astronomers without Borders
ONE PEOPLE, ONE SKY
We all share the same sky, and Astronomers Without Borders brings the world together to share our passion of astronomy and the wonders of the Universe.
Observing projects bring people together to share their activities with each other.
Support projects allow those in developed countries to share with others, making it possible for everyone to enjoy the wonders of the night sky.
Online programs bring everyone together live for remote observing.
And in the process of looking outward together, we learn about each other and create lasting bonds, regardless of country or culture.
It is this bond between people that Astronomers Without Borders hopes to foster. A brief message or the gift of a small telescope can grow into lasting bonds, goodwill and friendships that reach around the world. Understanding replaces ignorance and suspicion. Media images are superceded by the faces of real people. Relationships, support and personal connections supplant stereotypes.
AWB MISSION
Astronomers Without Borders (AWB) is dedicated to fostering understanding and goodwill across national and cultural boundaries by creating relationships through the universal appeal of astronomy.
Astronomers Without Borders projects promote sharing. Sharing resources. Sharing knowledge. Sharing inspiration. All through a common interest in something basic and universal. Sharing the sky.
Dave is also a fellow of the Royal Astronomical Society
