Abstract
Planetariums are key settings for science education and communi- cation. They enable the exploration of a wide range of astronomy topics and ideas. Usually, sessions are adapted and tailored to the public, and content plans are prepared and put in practice. But, in the end, what exactly is communicated during these sessions? What do guides and their audiences really talk about? To answer these questions, we recorded video and audio during planetarium sessions with minimum disturbance, in different Portuguese insti- tutions. The content communicated in these live sessions was then analysed. In this talk, we present preliminary results of the review of that content and explore its connections with the Portuguese curriculumguidelinesandtheIAUguidelinesforastronomyliteracy.
