So with today being the MLK Holiday, I offically wanted to do something that was educational, thoughtful, and interesting with my family today. Basically I wanted to end the day by saying to myself, " I learned something today!" So I took a chance and decided take the family to the Pink Palace Museum in Memphis to the IMAX Movie " Hubble 3D"
Now, I must say that this is probably one of the most awesome films that I have ever seen. My wife said the same thing, so It must have been good! Hubble images come to vast, three-dimensional life in a new IMAX movie, "Hubble 3D," that takes audiences through the telescope's 20-year existence and puts them in orbit with astronauts during the latest servicing mission.
The film is narrated by Leonardo Dicaprio, and the film's goal is to make viewers feel as though they are voyaging through the cosmos, seeing through Hubble’s eyes, and peering over the shoulders of astronauts as they work on the telescope – providing an intimacy and immediacy beyond the reach of static images. Groundbreaking astronomy visualizations, which allow viewers to soar through objects like the Orion and Eagle nebulae, past stars and embryonic solar systems, were the result of efforts by a group of specialists at the Space Telescope Science Institute (STScI).
