editI went to see the planetarium show on 29-04-2006, and can verify the following paragraph in the article as correct and based on my observations.
- To say 'farewell' to the planetarium, Tussauds have allowed free entry in its penultimate week, from 24th - 30th April. Vistors could enter through the groups entrance to see the show, running every twenty minutes. Unlike the queues for Madame Tussauds, which typically run right up the street, there were few people waiting to see the planetarium show, even on the Saturday. The show, entitled 'Journey to Infinity' was projected onto the inside of the dome using 'Digistar 3' digital projectors, and told the story of space, starting from Earth and zooming out to reveal the other planets in the Solar System, the Milky Way and then other galaxies and the rest of the universe. It ended with an optimistic message suggesting that humans would continue to explore space, going further than ever before.
