Aside from the obvious tourism benefits in becoming a unique destination in regional NSW and working with other attractions in the region to create themed holidays and activities, the Planetarium will also enhance the social and cultural lifestyle of the Central West.
 
It will be an ideal way of communicating information to today’s screen-orientated, hands on public, as well as providing local employment and volunteer opportunities for all age groups. It will promote astronomical and general science awareness as well as providing curriculum support to local and regional schools. It will provide significant flow-on benefits to other public and commercial enterprises by complimenting existing and proposed cultural, environmental and social attractions in the region. And perhaps most importantly, it will use affordable technology.
 
A planetarium and science centre is similar to a library or museum where the benefits and ‘profits’ are considered in terms of the educational, cultural enrichment and economic value offered to a community.
