Toronto gets a new planetarium
Marc Garneau
Marc Garneau, Canada’s first astronaut in space, unveiled today the newly refurbished CA Planetarium at the Ontario Science Centre. Toronto’s only public planetarium now has state-of-the art multimedia technology thanks in part to a five-year contribution from enterprise software company CA Canada.

The new CA Planetarium has a cutting-edge combination of projector technologies, state-of-the-art 3D digital software and imagery based on real-time data that will allow audiences to feel as though they are flying through the universe. The planetarium show provides visitors of all ages with a spectacular view of thousands of objects in space, such as stars and galaxies beyond the Milky Way.

CA Canada contributed $275,000 to refurbish Toronto’s only planetarium and help promote science and technology education
