*****************************************************************************

Here at the Clark Planetarium, we have about 10,000 square feet of exhibit space. We are in the process of developing a 3-5 year plan for exhibit replacement/improvement. Cost is always an issue, but we'd like to hear from any of you as to what you think are the "best" astronomy exhibits you have or may have seen. The qualities for rating them as "best" should include visitor involvement/participation in active doing as well as their ability to accurately convey the subject matter that is relevant. Then, durability is an issue as are the usual host of considerations. Links to photos are always great too.

We would really appreciate it if you could find a few minutes to share your thoughts on astronomy-related exhibits. Please email me off the list at [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>. If others are interested, I'd be glad to consolidate the list and post it for everyone. Thanks.
