Subject: Re: Planetaria
Hello,
We are kicking around silly ideas (silly idea season) and have decided we
absolutely MUST HAVE a Planetarium. Having taken the first step (determined
the presence of interest and willpower) we are now onto step 2: who builds
these things?
Does anyone know a contact person for a recently designed and constructed
planetarium, or even better, know someone who has ever designed and
constructed a planetarium? I thought I'd ask the list before hitting the
yellow pages for nearby cities...
Depends on how serious you are. The Children's Museum in Indianapolis has
a state-of-the-art planetarium that uses computer projector rather than the
older lens projection from an "alien"-looking outfit. Could be expensive,
but it wouldn't hurt to ask!
