Rock Bridge High School

Due to technical difficulties, the planetarium is closed until further notice.

The Rock Bridge High School planetarium has been in existence since 1974. It is open for programs to school groups during normal school hours.

The planetarium is available for use by both CPS schools as well as groups from outside the district. Programs are done by reservation only.

The planetarium seats 65 visitors. A Spitz 512 star projector is coupled with a 40-foot dome to create a realistic simulation of the night sky. In addition, Sky-Skan auxiliary projectors and Sky-Skan Spice control equipment allow virtual trips into space and to model celestial phenomena.
