National Geographic 9105000 Astro Planetarium Multimedia, Black

Product Information

As we mentioned in our review, the lighting module seems to be the same — if just a tiny bit less impressive — as other star projectors we have reviewed, including the BlissLights Sky Lite 2. The home planetarium is ultimately a small globe that can be placed on the included stand at almost any angle. The Sega Toys Homestar Flux certainly has a more premium and 'adult' look to it, and although it is more costly, you would miss out on the time and date selector, the inbuilt speaker and the radio (if you can get that tuned in). The lights and laser are projected out of the astronaut's space helmet, and the buttons are on their backpack, but you can also use the handy remote control so you don't have to leave your seat to alter the color, speed and brightness settings.

It is designed to enable young budding astronomers to explore the wonders of space from their bedrooms, exploring NASA and Hubble Telescope images of spacecraft, planets and nebulas and transforming their rooms into the night sky thanks to the star projector function. This beams countless stars onto the dome, making it seem that you are actually standing under the real starry sky.

These are much more likened to the more traditional planetariums that teach astronomy and related sciences. The National Geographic Astro Planetarium Multimedia converts your home into a personal planetarium. There are labels on the constellations to aid understanding so users can transfer their knowledge to the real night sky. There is a disc that displays the planets of the solar system as well, but it is the ones that show galaxies, nebulas and other NASA-based imagery that really stand out.

Aurora Borealis Northern Lights Star ProjectorIt's highly customizable, the patterns are realistic and the music rhythm mode is impressive. You don't really need to read the instructions to get going aside from working out how to set the time and date (open the disc tray and turn the dial). Those discs carry photographs of spacecraft, astronauts, and nebulae, all provided by NASA and the Hubble Telescope.If that is all the functionality you are looking for, you don't want to purchase additional disks and you aren't fussy about the extra level of image detail the Home Star Flux displays, it makes sense to go for this Bresser model. Small grabby hands were excited to investigate the projector once 3 x AA batteries (not included) had been inserted, starting with the constellations and stars.

The projector ships with four disks — Pillars of Creation, NGC 2359 (Thor's Helmet), the Moon, the Milky Way and the Earth and Moon (on one disk), but there's a whole catalog of others to choose from to purchase separately. When we r eviewed the Encalife Ambience Galaxy and Star Projector, we found the speaker to be surprisingly high quality and audibly well-rounded.This cable allows you to connect your smartphone or other audio devices to the projector's small speaker, so you can play your favorite music or sounds while enjoying the view of the stars. The point is that it is hands-on and engaging, encouraging discussion and exploration together or with friends. You can choose to project onto a wall or onto the small plastic dome that sit The Orzors Galaxy Lite Home Planetarium Star Projector is incredibly easy to operate, use three buttons to turn on the device, start/stop rotation, and set the sleep timer — that's all there is to it.
