The Earl & Hazel Faulkner Planetarium
Opened in November 1995, the Faulkner Planetarium is the largest planetarium theater in Idaho, and one of the best equipped in the northwestern U.S. The theater seats 144 under a 50' dome and features a Digistar II digital graphics projection system. It is located in the Herrett Center for Arts & Science on the College of Southern Idaho's main campus in Twin Falls, Idaho, and features digital projection technology which immerses the audience in sights and sounds for a truly memorable theater experience.
