There is a facility called "Tsukuba Expo Center" in my city and it houses a planetarium and displays things related to Expo '85, scientific research, and space exploration. My city is called an "academic city" and it indeed has lots of national Institutes that specialize in science and renowned high schools that let the students to go on to college. And there is a huge library near the center of my city that has tremendous amounts of books and it is very crowded over the weekend. In other words, my city has lots of institutions that cater to the need of people who want to know more about things.
And this Expo center is one of them that stimulates people intellectually. Its planetarium changes its content often, so even those who lives near this facility can enjoy it. And some of displays are often so specific that ordinary people would find it difficult to understand them.
Then again, even I could enjoy seeing those displays because there was an explanation for each exhibit. And when I visited here the other day, there were even preschool children who were excited to see those.
