Viaje al espacio profundo

Prepare for an awe-inspiring journey through the cosmos, galaxies, stars, and black holes.

Starstruck combines rigorous science, powerful storytelling, and cutting-edge immersive technology. Transforming the mysteries of deep space into something you can see, hear, and experience.

Whether one's passion for the cosmos was sparked by Brian Cox or Mr Spock, Smithsonian Starstruck promises to be an extraordinary experience, housed within one of Britain's most impressive buildings – and it's open to the public now.

Visitors will [...] encounter extreme exoplanets, witness the life cycle of stars and explore the immense scale of galaxies and black holes as they gain a deeper understanding of humanity’s place in the universe.

Built from real astronomical data, Starstruck is far more than an exhibition; it is a cosmic journey that dissolves the boundary between observer and observed, allowing guests to activate their senses as they touch, hear and navigate the wonders of the universe like never before.

Among the experience’s most dramatic highlights is an encounter with Sagittarius A*, the supermassive black hole at the centre of the Milky Way. Standing at its edge offers a powerful reminder of the immense forces that continue to shape our galaxy.

Designed for curious minds, space enthusiasts, and anyone seeking a unique experience in Melbourne this winter, Starstruck offers a powerful new way to connect to the incredible scale, mystery, and beauty of our universe.

Venture to a supermassive black hole, witness a supernova, listen to the sun’s vibrations and climb onto powerful telescopes in virtual reality for Smithsonian Starstruck, an immersive experience launched with the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory.

The show, which is touring other U.S. and international cities, too, pulses with the childlike curiosity that planetariums can invoke — but also with sharp, science-backed imagery and a constellation of accessible facts. It’s arguably the best way for a general audience to connect with astronomy outside of a telescope or sci-fi flick, and easily the best VR exhibit to visit Denver in the last five years.

A first-of-its-kind virtual reality adventure that doesn’t just show you the universe — it places you inside it.

It’s an amazing experience. It is fully immersive and you truly feel like you’re in space.

If the recent Artemis II mission inspired an obsession with space, you’ll soon be able to embark on your own virtual voyage across the cosmos.
