New Technology
allows for a new way to stargaze at RVCC!
“Breathtaking.” “Awesome.” We are the first large planetarium in
New Jersey to install a digital projection system.
Six
powerful, high definition projectors combine real images and
computer animations to create an immersive "you-are-there" style
experience. With DigitalSky 2, audiences feel as though they are
zooming through the solar system, past the Milky Way, and to the
very edges of the universe. Featured in all of our shows.
