Planetarium Telescope

The Angelo State University Planetarium is one of the largest and technically sophisticated planetarium theaters located on a university campus. At the heart of the theater is the Spitz 512 projector which is capable of projecting over 5,000 stars.

The planetarium is used as a physics classroom for astronomy, physical science, and geology classes. School and public planetarium programs are given when A.S.U. classes are in session.
