"Now, here in India, we are planning construction of a very large Vedic Planetarium or Temple of Understanding. Within the planetarium we will construct a huge, detailed model of the universe as described in the text of the Fifth canto of the Srimad Bhagavatam. Within the planetarium the model will be studied by onlookers from different levels by use of escalators. Detailed information will be given on open verandas at the different levels by means of dioramas, charts, films, etc. This model will be engineered to suspend from the structure of the dome and rotate according to the real movement of the planets. The plans for this very large project are being taken solely from the references found in Fifth canto of Srimad Bhagavatam and its authoritative commentaries by important acharyas, along with other Puranas and Samhitas like Brahma-samhita etc.” Srila Prabhupada, 1976
