Immersive Educational Experience for Kids
Be the Astronaut (Eureka Exhibits, 2016) is an intensive science museum exhibit that educates young people about the different ways that humans travel through space: leaving earth's atmosphere, using celestial dynamics to move through the solar system, entering the atmosphere of other planetary bodies, and roving across alien terrain, controlled through large-format touch screens and flight sticks to simulate a futuristic cockpit. Presented through 29 different 2D and 3D mini-games, it was created specifically to appeal to kids' love of video games. BtA launched on schedule at the Houston Space Center in Fall of 2016.
