Missed the last super full moon? Here's your chance to make amends with a stargazing session at Bangkok Planetarium on December 19-20.
The planetarium throws open its doors in the evening as part of the Night at the Museum Festival, an annual event that sees 53 museums across Thailand stay open late for nighttime learning. Since Bangkok Planetarium doesn't usually do evening sessions, this is one of those rare opportunities to visit after dark.
You'll get to explore the sky in two ways: inside the planetarium dome itself and through proper telescopes set up outside by the Astronomical Society of Thailand. Members will be on hand to guide you through real-time sky observation from early evening right through to late night, pointing out constellations and planets you might otherwise miss.
There are over 20 free activities to get stuck into throughout the evening, so even if you're not an astronomy buff, there's plenty to keep you occupied.
If you fancy catching one of the planetarium shows inside, you'll need to book tickets in advance. Special showtimes run on Friday December 19 at 6pm, 7pm and 8pm, with extra sessions on Saturday December 20 at 4pm, 5pm, 6pm, 7pm and 8pm.
Tickets are remarkably cheap at B30 for children and B50 for adults, and can be purchased through the planetarium's website.
Head to the Bangkok Planetarium to stargaze on December 19-20, 6pm-8pm.
