Explorer Dome and the DETI Inspire team at UWE Bristol created a new experience to celebrate the ingenuity of human engineering. Full-dome digital projections allowed visitors to view engineering marvels from history and explore the pros and cons of modern life. The planetarium show was previewed to the public at the COP26 Planetarium in November 2021. This project enhanced the legacy of the show by reaching diverse young people from across the West of England with a schools' tour. Experienced presenters from Explorer Dome trained regional engineers in presentation skills to inspire young people. Films of sustainability engineers at their workplaces showcased how the engineering design process could address the Climate and Ecological Emergency. The presenter-led planetarium experience was delivered inside the immersive Explorer Dome in schools or remotely via Zoom.
