FDDB is an exciting and friendly resource for people who are passionate about fulldome medium.
Their mission is to spread fulldome awareness and help incite fulldome innovation while focusing on content. It's for everyone interested in the fulldome medium: planetarians, science center & museum operators, private companies, independent filmmakers, students…. you name it!
Anyone can join FDDB: it’s a great way to connect with the fulldome community. They are strongly committed to put no limits in front of creativity, passion and quality: institutions, planetariums, private companies, independent filmmakers, students… anyone can add content to FDDB.

This Idea came about because when (back in March 2011) a crazy Italian planetarian attended the Fulldome UK festival in Birmingham, England (which was also his first-ever international event). He was astounded to meet so many people interested in the fulldome medium and was delighted to encounter others who shared his view that domes are now able to transcend astronomy- related topics – inspiring and communicating in whole new ways.
All attendees left Fulldome UK 2011 with one question in mind: “What can each of us do to help grow fulldome interest and fulldome audiences?”
FDDB – The Fulldome Database was this Italian planetarian’s answer and consequently everyone lived happily ever after.
