Leitner Family Observatory and Planetarium

Last Tuesday, I went to the Leitner Family Observatory and Planetarium in Yale University with my friends.

We made this decision quickly, so we didn’t know where we could catch the shuttle bus.Therefore we spent a lot of time to figure it out. Luckily, there was a shuttle bus passing by, we caught the bus at the gym bus stop and arrived at our destination, the Leitner Family Observatory and Planetarium in time.

There was a long line in front of the lecture hall, we got in there one by one. We lay down on the floor with strong excitment, because there were not enough seats for us.

Suddenly, the light was turned down. A big screen, filled with stars appeared over our head. This digital planetarium theatre was a Spitz SciDomeHD system to simulate the Universe at any time from any place . Therefore, there was no doubt, we were shocked by the high quality show. During the whole process, there was an interpreter to teach us about the astronomy knowledge.

We enjoyed that, as most of us hadn’t seen such beautiful images before. 

Nature, always full of miracle. It should be found.

Nature, always full of diversity. It should be found.

Nature, always full of facination. It waits us to found.

We walked back to our dormitory, slowly,leisurely,and joked,chatted freely with each other. There was also a beautiful starry sky that night.
