Rollins Planetarium
The Rollins Planetarium features a GOTO Chronos Space Simulator star projector. This state-of-the-art device uses light guide technology to optically project a realistic and beautiful starry sky. In all, some 8500 stars are projected, down to the faintest stars visible to the human eye under ideal viewing conditions. With high-speed, computer-calculated positioning, a simple click of a mouse sets the sky for any time in the past, present or future, and for any location on Earth or elsewhere in the solar system-- all in 20 seconds or less! Installed at Young Harris in 2002, the projector was the first installation of the Chronos model anywhere in the world.

The planetarium is located in the Maxwell Center building on the campus of Young Harris College. The seating capacity is 109 people under a 40-foot-diameter dome. The planetarium was opened in 1979 through the philanthropy of Wayne and Grace Rollins. The college also has an observatory, located on Georgia state property near the Brasstown Valley Resort, only a short distance from campus.
