Bai Tao, former president of Qimingxing, an astronomy lovers' society in Shanghai, was among the first to visit the museum during its trial operation on Monday.

"I have visited many astronomy museums and planetariums around the world, and this one is the most modern and impressive," he said. "Its designs and exhibitions combine science and art perfectly, which leaves a feeling of the infinite universe in everyone's heart."

Another test run is scheduled for Saturday. When it's officially open, the museum will operate from 9 am to 4 pm, with entrance tickets priced at 30 yuan ($4.50) for adults and 15 yuan for students.
