Some rely on a bright LED bulb that lights up and magnifies different images of the night sky. Others, like traditional planetariums, use two rotating spheres with a bright lamp inside them. This lamp then shines light through different lenses, which represent the stars you see.<\/p>\n<p><b>Will my projector work during the day?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Generally, the projected image from your home planetarium will always look more impressive in a super dark room. Unless your projector uses a very advanced LED bulb, you&#8217;ll probably want to keep the light levels in your room as low as possible to see the most detail in your night sky.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sega Toys Homestar Flux Star Projector Let&#8217;s be honest \u2014 no projector will be able to perfectly mimic the entirety of the majestic universe above our heads.
