Karnataka’s contribution to science has deep roots. Karnataka has a long tradition of supporting science and education.
From Hindustan Aeronautics Limited's contribution to indigenous aviation and defence manufacturing to ISRO’s achievements in space exploration, Karnataka has played an important role in building India’s scientific capabilities.
Today, Karnataka is a leader in IT, aerospace, biotechnology and space technology, supported by research institutions, startups and MSMEs. With COSMOS in Mysuru, we add another feather to its cap.

The inauguration of COSMOS Planetarium by Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri @narendramodi tomorrow will be broadcast live across 10,000 centres which includes Gram Panchayats, Arivu Kendras and colleges in Karnataka, enabling citizens and students across the State to witness this significant occasion.
The COSMOS Planetarium in Mysuru will help create greater interest in science and astronomy, especially among young students.
It will provide a practical space for students to explore space science well beyond their standard curriculum.
Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri @narendramodi will inaugurate the COSMOS-Mysuru Planetarium on 13th November 2026, marking a significant advancement in planetarium technology and astronomy education in the country.
Built by the Indian Institute of Astrophysics (IIA), COSMOS-Mysuru is India's first LED Dome planetarium.
The Planetarium has received funding support of ₹5 crore through the MPLADS contribution of Smt @nsitharaman.
The state-of-the-art facility features a 15-metre tilted dome comprising around 6,150 panels with 4.2 crore individual LEDs. Unlike conventional planetariums that use projectors to display images on a passive dome, its LED panels can be controlled in real time, offering an immersive visual experience and new possibilities for astronomy education.
The Sky Theatre will showcase professionally produced astronomy programmes, along with an in-house film exploring the connection between the history of Mysuru and astronomy. The shows will be available in Kannada, English and Hindi.

ನವೆಂಬರ್ 3ರ ಮುಂಜಾನೆ, ದಕ್ಷಿಣ ಕರ್ನಾಟಕದ ನಿವಾಸಿಗಳು ಚಂದ್ರ ಗುರುಗ್ರಹವನ್ನು ಮರೆಮಾಚುವುದನ್ನು ನೋಡಬಹುದು. ರಾಜ್ಯದ ಮತ್ತು ದೇಶದ ಇತರ ಭಾಗದಲ್ಲಿರುವವರಿಗೆ, ಚಂದ್ರ ಆಕಾಶದಲ್ಲಿ ಗುರುಗ್ರಹದ ಅತ್ಯಂತ ಸಮೀಪದಲ್ಲಿ ಹಾದುಹೋಗುವಂತೆ ಕಾಣಿಸಿಕೊಳ್ಳುತ್ತದೆ!

When will the Moon hide Jupiter for your city?
What will it look like to the naked eye?
How will it look through a telescope?

Where can you see the occultation from?
What is Jupiter's path as it passes behind the Moon?
What will northern parts of India see?
