O znamenitosti

Hitre informacije: Lahko stojite pod kupolastim nebom, kjer se še vedno vrtijo starinski zvezdni projektorji, ki mečejo ozvezdja tako ostra, da se običajno opazovanje zvezd zdi kot zasebna seja. Praktični eksponati vam omogočajo upravljanje pravih teleskopov, dotikanje meteoritnih drobcev in preizkušanje simuliranih vesoljskih sprehodov, tako da znanost postane otipna namesto abstraktne.

Poudarki: Mehki žvižgi in nežno brnenje projektorja naznanijo začetek predstave, kupola pa se zdi, kot da ovija celotno vesolje nad glavo, tako da so planeti videti na dosegu roke. Igralna tradicija otroke poziva, naj med simuliranim izstrelitvijo glasno odštevajo, prostor pa napolnijo smejoči glasovi in rahlo tresenje tal, kar naredi vzlet presenetljivo prepričljiv.

Notranji nasveti

Wear layers, theater rooms can be cool while outdoor terraces get windy by the lake.
Arrive 30 to 45 minutes before a popular sky show to grab the best seating in the Grainger Sky Theater.
Head to the outdoor terraces at sunset for classic Chicago skyline photos with the museum in the foreground.
Skip specialty guided tours when short on time, focus instead on the Grainger Sky Theater and the historic telescope exhibits.
