Occupational Hazards -- Part 1




If you live in Nashville, you may or may not have noticed all the advertisements that have cropped up in the past month about the Sudekum planetarium. If you do not live in Nashville, the Adventure Science Center has been working on a new wing to the museum for the past three years, which include (apart from the third largest planetarium in the country), an exhibit simulating microgravity, and a moonwalk. The planetarium has stadium seating for about 500 people, and uses an IMAX projected screen, displaying approximately 20,000 stars, as well as hosting animated featurettes. Yesterday was the Grand opening, and the mayor cut the ribbon for us, and everyone clapped. There were balloon contortionists outside, ice cream inside, and everyone had a roaring good time.
