Frank did a good job. I initially thought it must me a small show but was comparable perhaps even better than the ones in metro areas . It's a must go if you are ever in the Rhinelander area

Kovac Planetarium is nestled in the woods about 20 miles east of Rhinelander. The experience is awesome and the education is amazing. We will be back.

Only 5 Stars since I can't give 10! Truly a must see. Just go! It's amazing, Frank does a professional job with his presentation yet he's a regular guy, very personable. We had small kids and there was another group of older folks and we all loved it. We went around the time of the Mars rover mission and Frank... More

This planetarium is the hidden gem of the North Woods! We drove there from Eagle River, which took about a half hour. It was well worth the short drive! The owner, Frank, not only designed and built the planetarium, but he also does the presentation and runs the planetarium on a day to day basis! It doesn't look like much... More

I visited the Kovac Planetarium for the third time today. Each time the experience has been even more enjoyable for me. Frank is most definitely one of the most amazing people I have ever met. When you learn about how he built his planetarium mostly by himself including hand painting the stars you realize that he is one determined and... More

Everyone should see this! Frank Kovac puts on such an excellent show it is unbelievable! For someone to have such passion and committment to build this planetarium by himself with his own money, just goes to show what we're all capable of. This is definitely a must see attraction. Just to speak with him. He is an inspiration to all,... More

Biggest in the world. Narrator never lost his enthusiasm but was not a comic, did not live on punch lines. Particularly fun for anyone with needing to have cobwebs swept from the mind to be reintroduced to a sense of wonder in the colorful beauty of the expanding universe. A private venture well woth the $12 adult admission. A ticket... More

I took my family here today, and couldn't get home to write a review fast enough. I just kept thinking and saying, "This is AMAZING!," and it truly is. I kept asking Mr. Kovac questions, completely unable to grasp how this one man (with very little help it would seem) created this amazing planetarium. It was fascinating, really. The thing... More

How one man did all of that just amazes me. It is so very interesting. The only negative thing is that it is kind of hard to find as there are no big signs out on Hwy 8.
