Even though it is shaped like a microphone, it has been the Argentinean eye to the universe for the past 40 years (1967-2007).
The "Planetario de la Ciudad de Buenos Aires Galileo Galilei", with it sample and beautiful park, stage to thousand of open-air concerts, it is a nice place to spend weekend afternoons with family and friends.
I emphasize on the park because I found the show inside the Planetariumun unsatisfactory. Even though there has been important scientific and technological changes since I visited the place more than fourteen years ago, I though presentation "Birth and Death of the Sun" lacked depth andinteresting information.
I think, that if we want to continue to stimulate our culture it would be necessary to balance and tune in our microphones a little better.
