Dear Astronomy Experts
During a remodel of a room, I have found it feasible to install an 8 - 10 foot diameter dome. Is there such a dome that is a prefab structure with the stars of the northern hemisphere 'punched out' so a lighting grid from behind would make it look like the night sky, in a darkened room? Cordially IT |

Cordially IT There are companies that specialize in painting the night sky with fluorescent paint on ceilings. During the day the paint is invisible. Look at the results he http://nightsky.to/ A hidden black light can make the paint glow really well. I think, however, that it would be better if you do the painting by yourself - you can go to whatever level of details you want. It would be much simpler than a perforated dome, and would provide better rendering of diffuse objects like the mikly way. Reards, - Alex |
