Apparently the skylight can open, I think originally the "wings" themselves were going to move? Or at any rate, more than just the skylight.

The terminology used is interesting. At the PATH station, the "Oculus" refers to the whole interior space, while the skylight has a different name ("Wedge of Light"). But at the Fulton Center, the "Oculus" is specifically the skylight.

And of course, there is a third "Oculus" in the area, the artwork at the WTC subway station, which predates the other two, and may have been the inspiration for using the term at the two newer stations.
