Planetary rover |
|
“We have a GO for exploration!" as guests take on the role
of a remote scientist and discover robotics like those that
have explored the Moon and Mars. The goal: to guide a
robotic rover on an exploration mission. Guests call upon
their best hand-eye coordination and navigation skills as
they take control of a 2/3rds scale Soujourner or
Spirit-type rover and explore a quadrant of a moon or
planetary surface. Guests can either move the rover freely
or follow a pre-set pattern of exploration in this 3-5
minute experience. The terrain explored can be themed for
either the Moon, Mars or other planets. A texturized surface
creates a challenging rover testing area. Photorealistic or
painted imagery surround the rover to create an immersive
experience. |

Glovebox - Rack |
|
“Science Team, this is Payloads Operations Control
Center…you have a GO for experiment activiation.” Imagine
conducting experiments in equipment just like the astronauts
use in space. The goal: to use a International Space Station
Microgravity Glovebox facility to manipulate a variety of
experiments. One guest at a time can place their hands
inside the gloves of the glovebox to work with one of
several types of experiments available. Magnetic levitation,
bernoulli and particle dispersion are just a few of the
available experiments that can be placed in the glovebox for
a fun and learning experience. |
