Discover the Science of Football in its World Cup Season at the Planetarium of Bogotá

In the midst of the 2026 World Cup fever, the Planetarium of Bogotá presents its thematic season 'The Science of Football', an activity agenda designed for the whole family that merges the passion for the king of sports with scientific knowledge. From June 13 to July 5, 2026, attendees can explore how engineering determines the behavior of spheres in the air, answering questions like the purpose of dimples on a golf ball or the effects a soccer ball takes based on its design. The program includes interactive talks, workshops, and immersive experiences covering everything from the physics of the ball to the strategy of a coach. The brightest scientists in history take the field and occupy tactical positions in a 'match' for cosmic knowledge, offering an ingenious experience that blends the history of science with the excitement of football. We recommend arriving early to enjoy all activities. The Planetarium has indoor and outdoor spaces, so dress comfortably and prepare for an educational and fun day. Public transportation is the best option: the nearest TransMilenio station is 'Museo Nacional' or 'Universidad Nacional', and from there it's a short walk. The Planetarium of Bogotá is a cultural and scientific landmark in the city, located in the heart of the international center. With over 50 years of history, it offers unique experiences combining astronomy, science, and culture. Don't miss this opportunity to see football from a completely new perspective.
