The heart of the planetarium is the intricate Spitz A-4 star projector. This instrument projects over 2000 stars, along with the band of the Milky Way, the brighter star clusters, nebulae, and external galaxies. The sun, moon, and visible planets all move with their proper speeds, and can be positioned for any date in man's history, past, present, or future.
 
The planetarium facility is used in conjunction with a number of academic programs within the college, and is available to school groups and organizations upon request.
