The Hong Kong Space Museum has launched a brand-new 3D dome show catered to little Einsteins and space-loving adults. Instead of a documentary-style short film like its 2D counterpart ‘T. Rex’, ‘The Great Solar System Adventure 3D’ offers an immersive journey across space.
The 25-minute animation takes audiences through the characteristics and composition of planets in the Solar System, with the witty Great Schiaparelli acting as a tour guide for your cosmic adventure. Hopping on magical orrery – that’s one of those old-school mechanical models of the solar system – you’ll journey through Mercury’s extreme weather and Neptune’s raging winds, escape Venus’ high pressure atmosphere and Jupiter’s lightning storms, marvel at Saturn’s rings and Uranus’ unusual sideways orbital, and make an exciting landing on Mars.
‘The Great Solar System Adventure 3D’ replaces the museum’s previous 3D dome show programme exploring the Arctic wilderness. This interstellar voyage is a perfect way to end a day of wandering through the cosmos within the egg-shaped building on the Tsim Sha Tsui waterfront.
The show will run until October 14, 2026, with screening times at 2pm and 6.30pm on weekdays, 12.30pm and 5pm on weekends and public holidays at the Space Theatre. Tickets are priced from $15 to $40 per person.
