3-D Astronomy Shows

General information
The new Marston Exploration Theater (MET) in ISTB 4 is designed to cater to a variety of audiences. First, it is intended to support undergraduate level instruction of survey earth and space sciences curriculum by providing visualizations of science principals in way that has not been done at ASU heretofore. Second, we will create content including images and simulations of current exploration technologies, especially SESE research, and make these available to an internal and external audience. Third, we will provide a compelling 3D experience for K-12 student as part of our important EPO mission. Fourth, we will deliver "documentary" style presentations along with author Q and A in this state-of-the-art and amazing format.

The actual schedule and timing of student and public "shows" is forthcoming.
