Planetarium Negara- get a gogo!

Have you ever been realised that on the outside of Earth, there's another life, so-called galaxy?.As a dweller of planet Earth, I am just curious about stars, galaxy, star clusters, and rocket? Yeah, since I have never been to planetarium, me and my best travel buddy Nita as always planned a travel trip without any planning.confuse? yeah me too. But that was fun you know, being spontaneous and flexible. I just love it.

+ You can find the replica of the famous Stonehenge, located in the entrance park
of Planetarium


Before leaving, the gastronomy took very early action. We stopped at Chinese Restaurant named ZHIA (if im not mistaken), which located in Sunway Pyramid. I ate Golden Spicy Chicken which is one of recommended ala carte menus from the chef. I found this Tofu Fa seller (soya puding with brown sugar sauce) just opposite the restaurant. I know the common regulation that "No drinks or food from outside, allowed" but on that time, I couldnt stand my self to break the law. I brought the Tofu Fa (the most favorite item which made from soya) inside and ate it as appetizer. or dessert? (i was twisted my mind).

+ Tofu Fa (soya puding served with brown or white sauce - u choose!)
+ Golden Spicy Chicken/Pork/Beef

How to go there
: Planetarium Negara is located in large tourism site nearby Tmn. Tasik Perdana. If you go from KL Sentral, you can use cab, cost RM12. Another option, you can just walk through Hilton and Le Meridien hotel (opposite KL Sentral) and take pedestrian walk, to National Museum (Museum Negara). Planetarium is located in the same site of Museum Negara.
walk distance fr KL Sentral : 300 mtr.

+ Planetarium Negara with its blue dome.
+ Scenery from the crossover bridge, connecting National Museum and Planetarium


Entrance Fee: Free (but if you want to enter Teater Angkasa or try the simulator, you must pay RM 2/ person.
Opening Hours: Thursday - Sunday, 9am - close

When I reached the exhibition hall. My eyes were sticking on these Mr. Astronauts. Hmmm, they're pretty cool in their outfit, got balloon on their head. shut up. that's astronaut's outfit, and I love it! but to be honest, it's a bit scary when you saw person wearing this kind of costume during the night hour.

+ hey mr. astranouts, im begging u, pls bring me to the moon

Another simulator is ANTI-GRAVITY ROOM. The room is about 1.5x3mtr which allows you to experience the sensation of living without gravity. I felt like falling down every time I steeped my foot. I have to hold the handle so I want fall. On its floor, you can see the panorama of flying to the moon. You can see the sprinkle stars under your feet. COOL!

+ i thought, anti-gravity means you can fly. But what i felt was only dizzy and unstable steps :(

I also visited the replica of interior inside the rocket. The toilet was cool, in its explanation the toilet will work more like a vacuum cleaner rather than flushing just like any other toilet. My tricky mind's wondering. What will be happen when the astronaut is pupping and suddenly there's no gravity inside the room. Don't u think you will see "something" fr your toilet bowl flying in front of your face? yieks....

+ i wanna tell a secret. Astronauts are humans, they also need to do the "P" stuffs.
Im wondering, how they put off their complex outfit when they feel kebelet.


teaser: My next posting would be National Museum. If i am noy mistaken, that was my very first time visiting museum. GREAT. what sort of person i am.that's confusing.after 19 years???whatever. But this museum's cool. It reminds me of Night at The Museum, I can say it's something similar like that, except the alive objects.

The Planetarium looks much bigger from your post. Haha..

The National Museum is some interesting place in KL. After the recent renovation, the museum looks more impressive. It feels a little like the museum in UK. But it's still much smaller than the UK ones. Anyhow, I'm still proud of it. Haha.. Looking forward for your post.
