The New Digital Planetarium
The Eugenides Foundation’s New Digital Planetarium, which opened its doors to the public in November 2003, is made up of a 945 m2 278-seat amphitheatre surrounded by a huge dome.
The remarkable Marianthi Simou, sister of Eugene Eugenides and the first director–administrator and ‘soul’ of the Foundation, decided to create a planetarium within the Foundation’s building complex after consulting with Stavros Plakidis, astronomy professor at the University of Athens, and Dimitris Kasapis, lecturer at the National Technical University of Athens.
