PHOTOS: Science Central Cuts the Ribbon on New Planetarium; High Rail Bike to Return

03/26/2026

A ribbon-cutting ceremony was held by Science Central in Fort Wayne yesterday to mark the official opening of its new planetarium after many years in development. It’s the only public planetarium in the region. The 1,830-square-foot planetarium features a 21-foot-high, 28-foot-wide dome and can accomodate up to 50 seated guests to experience amazing views of the cosmos.

In a related story, Mikulski revealed plans to bring the beloved High Rail Bike back to Science Central. She said a grassroots campaign will launch this summer that’ll seek community contributions to bring it back. The High Rail Bike was one of Science Central’s most popular attractions for several years.
