The only knowledge I have of space stations is the few pictures of them – usually from the outside and people floating around on the inside.

I think it would be fascinating to actually see how the layout is designed – both the working and living quarters. Your endeavor is a terrific method of giving people the opportunity to get a much closer look at a space station.

I can certainly understand a great deal of work goes into creating your interactives, but I don’t have to tell you that visitors probably get a much better understanding through interacting and experiencing than simply looking at photographs or a movie.

I can see by the date your program is probably well underway already. I hope it went well.
