Editors of the Proceedings: Monika Malinowska, Kamil Deresz Graphic design: Michał Romański I still remember very well the exciting and fruitful days of our conference. 510 participants from 46 countries came and worked together sharing experiences, new ideas and passions and, frankly, enjoying themselves enormously. Planetaria are able to create such unworldly atmosphere and bring it to Warsaw. I hope that reading these proceedings you recall not only the hard facts but also the people who you share them with. We are very grateful to all participants, the whole organising team and our generous sponsors. Together, we did it! Weronika Śliwa, Ph.D. Head of Heavens of Copernicus Planetarium Chair of the IPS 2016 Program Committee Dear Fellow Planetarians, IPS is proud to provide these outstanding Proceedings from our IPS2016 Conference in Warsaw, Poland. This compilation of important documents written by planetarium professionals from different cultures and nations are one of the incredibly valuable benefits of your membership. For those of you who were with us in Warsaw, these Proceedings afford you the opportunity to review and reflect on some of the fascinating and useful sessions you attended and a chance to read what you missed during concurrent sessions. Those of you who were unable to attend the conference, enjoy reading through this wealth of research and experience from your international colleagues. On behalf of the IPS Council, we wholeheartedly thank Robert Firmhofer and the entire staff of the Copernicus Science Centre, our generous sponsors and all of you who attended for making the spectacular and inspirational IPS2016 Conference possible. Our days were filled with the very best of new ideas, new technologies, new teaching methodologies and much more. These Proceedings represent our collaborative efforts and provide a beneficial contribution to the future of Planetariums worldwide. Wishing you all great success!
