This looks like a more flexible Bolas's Citadel for artifact/ ramp/ Storm decks. What I like about this card is you can reasonably get a pretty good value off 6 CMC + 1 Activation Cost to hit a big spell the turn this comes into play.
What I like the most about this card is this is a 6 CMC compact win-con unlike something like Thousand-Year Storm / Quicksilver Amulet reminiscent of the Modern Scapeshift / Gift's Control decks which allows the player to fill the majority of their deck with strong generic spells rather than redundant combo pieces, which is ideal for cube.
I think the scry 2 mitigates a lot of the randomness - I would argue this is a lot less random than Chimil, the Inner Sun.
It's less random, but it's also less of an upfront investment. Chimil will often times net you two spells in the same amount of time Planetarium gets you one spell. Regardless of the comparison to Chimil, I don't think this card has a good home for it.

Yah I've really liked Nexus of Becoming, I think it's a good 6 CMC payoff.
Cheers,
