Summer Nights
The ScottishPower Planetarium offers the chance to see the night sky as it should be seen, with thousands of points of light above us. Most city-dwellers have never seen a clear night sky, as light pollution is now a serious problem throughout the Western world. Summer Nights is a unique show that will transport you across the world to view the sky in the Southern Hemisphere and see the sky as you'd never see it from Scotland. We explore the different constellations and find out more about how the people on the other side of the world tried to understand the sky.

The Dark Knight- The IMAX Experience
The eagerly awaited "The Dark Knight" will be coming to Scotland's only IMAX this Summer. In this anticipated sequel Batman raises the stakes in his war on crime. With the help of Lieutenant Jim Gordon and District Attorney Harvey Dent, Batman sets out to dismantle the remaining criminal organisations that plague Gotham's streets. The partnership proves to be effective, but they soon find themselves prey to a reign of chaos unleashed by a rising criminal mastermind known to the terrified citizens of Gotham as the Joker.
For the Batman sequel, director Christpoher Nolan wanted to transform the comic-book fantasy into a realistic crime thriller-so he shot the film using IMAX technology. To fully experience The Dark Knight this Summer, visit Scotland's only IMAX at Glasgow Science Centre.
