    <h3 id=head>Æthos<sup>&reg;</sup> Fixed Dome Planetarium Systems</h3>

    <p>Our <b>Æthos</b> (<i>AY-thos</i>) systems are high resolution, multi-projector digital planetarium systems for fixed domes of all sizes.
    </p>

    <p><b>Æthos</b> systems embody our time-tested design philosophy with our well-known focus on ease of use, quality, support, and educational integrity.
      We have eliminated most of the complexity and headaches typical of multi-projector systems so that you can focus on your audiences
      rather than your equipment.
