The Spartanburg County Public Library Planetarium features a 21,800 SF facility that houses a 50’ domed planetarium theater with 135 seats and additional spaces for STEAM, makerspace, and other learning activities and programs. Dedicated to lifelong learning, the planetarium offers free educational experiences to all visitors. One of the main features of the learning center is a Foucault pendulum that hangs in the lobby area of the new building. The facility brings pedestrian traffic to the city’s historic downtown and builds county-wide partnerships with schools, universities, and businesses.
