What To Expect?

This place will bore you to death if stars, universal workings, galaxies, and other astral beings mean nothing to you. However, the same place will prove to be a heavenly site if things like these interest you to the core. The 3 things that you can expect are as follows-

  • Sky Theatre

Imagine a dome-shaped hall engulfed in deadly darkness and screaming silence. Just when you settle yourself down, imagine the ceiling lighting up with stars, moons, planets, galaxies, constellations, and black holes...their twinkling and glowing giving you surreal feels...the vibes turning you into a character right out of a book! Now triple the intensity and imagine experiencing this in person! Woah. Even the people booking flights to Delhi from Houston come riding on the wings of the cosmos if their purpose is to explore the Nehru Planetarium.

  • Soyuz T-10, Space Station

It was used by the first Indian cosmonaut (Rakesh Sharma) to travel to space. Along with this on display is his spacesuit and the video that keeps running alongside wherein a conversation between Indira Gandhi and him is seen happening. 

  • Solar and Lunar Eclipse Workshops

The Planetarium organizes proper pieces of equipment like solar filters, telescopes, etc for interested people to have a close look at the eclipses. This usually happens when certain major eclipses are round the corner. The next time you feel like having a first-hand experience of eclipses, you know what to do, right? Book your Houston to Delhi flights and you are all sorted.

Apart from this, you can indulge in Nature Walks or explore the Nehru Memorial Museum. It will surpass the experience you’d have at Houston’s JSC for sure. Don’t believe us? Well, get your flights to Delhi from Houston booked and know yourself. If airfares are a hurdle, MyTicketsToIndia is here to eradicate that end-to-end with it’s discounted prices and bumper deals. Our aim is to make India and it’s iconic destinations accessible to you. Enjoy!
