The Planetarium is a private college in London, England. Founded in 1818, The Planetarium offers on-campus undergraduate and master's degree programs, in both Terrestrial and Gaseous magics. The Planetarium enrolls 1,200 undergraduate students on its London, England campus.

History
The founding of The Planetarium in 1818 marked a significant moment in the history of magical education. As a premier magic research school for Terrestrial Magics, The Planetarium was dedicated to the study of the Earth-Mars dichotomy, with a lesser focus on the Mercury-Venus dichotomy. The college quickly gained a reputation as a center for groundbreaking research in these fields, attracting the brightest young scholars from around the world. This school was named The College of Terrestrial Planets at The Planetarium.

However, as time went on, the Mercury-Venus dichotomy began to catch more attention among the students and faculty of The Planetarium. This growing interest helped to build The Planetarium's reputation as the leading institution for Terrestrial Magic research and further solidified its place as a world-renowned center for magical study. The College of Terrestrial Planets at The Planetarium continued to push the boundaries of what was possible in the study of Terrestrial Magic.

In 1852, The Planetarium expanded its offerings with the opening of a new college: The College of the Gas Giants. This new school was designed to provide students with a strong education in the Jupiter-Saturn and Uranus-Neptune dichotomies. With its focus on the gaseous planets, The College of the Gas Giants at The Planetarium quickly established itself as a leading center for research in these areas, attracting students and scholars from around the world.

Today, The Planetarium remains at the forefront of magical research and education, with both The College of Terrestrial Planets and The College of the Gas Giants continuing to push the boundaries of what is possible in the study of Terrestrial and Gas Giant Magics. Its reputation for excellence has only grown over the years, cementing its place as one of the most prestigious magical institutions in the world.

The College of Terrestrial Planets
The Planetarium's initial courses were focused on the Earth-Mars dichotomy or the powers of life and death. Students would learn about Earthly magic and how to give life to objects, and how to create that spark of life when there was nothing there before. These students would focus their minds on ideas such as breathing, nature, birth, and creation in order to attune themselves to Earth magic so that they may cast and impose their will upon the world. Students who learned more about Martian magic would learn how to take life away, and how to kill and destroy that spark of creation. These students would focus their minds on thoughts such as death, endings, removal, and closing so that they could attune to Martian magic and cast their will into the world. Students would initially learn these two schools together before deciding on which path to place their focus on.

Students of the Mercury-Venus dichotomy initially did not have as many resources as the Earth-Mars dichotomy, but with growing popularity, they gained more resources under the umbrella of The College of the Terrestrial Planets. Students of Mercury would learn about the control over matter and the ability to freely shift objects between states of matter. These students focus their minds on being fluid, open to change, and generally open-minded in order to shift the world according to their desires. Students of the Venus branch learn about temperature control, often with specializations in the extreme heat ranges, although some specialize in reaching absolute zero. These students focus their minds on emotion, using passion, rage, anger, and other strong emotions to alter the temperature of their surroundings. As with the Earth-Mars dichotomy, eventually, students would choose which of these two schools to continue their education in.

The College of the Gas Giants
With the expansion of The College of the Gas Giants, The Planetarium offered courses in both the Jupiter-Saturn dichotomy and the Uranus-Neptune dichotomy. Students of the Jupiter-Saturn dichotomy placed their focus on the powers of gravity and mass manipulation. Students of Jupiter would learn to adjust the mass of objects, being able to densely pack matter into smaller and smaller areas, or being able to spread matter out farther and farther. These students would focus their minds on visualizations of constricting and expanding objects in order to adjust the matter of the world around them. Students of Saturn would learn about gravity manipulation itself and the ability to increase or decrease the weight of objects at will. These students would center their minds on feelings of weight, free-falling, and the gut feeling. As with the Terrestrial schools, those of the Jupiter-Saturn dichotomy would eventually choose between their worlds.

Finally, the last of the dichotomies available to those at The Planetarium was the Uranus-Neptune dichotomy. Students of this school focused their learning on the manipulation of time itself. Those of the Uranus discipline learn about the half-life of elements and how to utilize the power from decaying atoms. These students learn how to increase the decay on command. These students focus their minds on thoughts of time gone past, the far future and far past, and other forms of time in order to control the life of elements around them. Students of Neptune learn about time manipulation itself, as they seek to force themselves to experience time differently from everyone around them. These students center their minds on the everlasting, the microsecond, the millennium, and all periods of time between. As with all other dichotomies, eventually, students are forced to pick their planetary attunement.

Student life
Student life at The Planetarium is bustling with activity. There are various student-run organizations and clubs that cater to different interests and passions. For example, the Magic Theory Club organizes discussions on the latest magical theories, while the Inner-Thoughts Club provides opportunities for students to learn how to better focus on their spells.

One of the most exciting aspects of student life at The Planetarium is the opportunity to participate in internships and research projects. These projects allow students to apply their knowledge in real-world situations and gain valuable experience that will be useful in their future careers.
