I am proud to announce a significant update for Space Science for Schools public outreach education equipment. I have used the Learning Technology inflatable 22' maxi-dome for about a year with mixed reviews. While it worked well with the original analog shadow cylinder projection system, it failed miserably for direct projection content as the surface of the dome is too irregular and bright for clean rendition. Also, the dome was generally too large and tall for most spaces we present programs and was not handicap accessible required by schools.
The Discovery Dome with ADA approved airlock entrance and projection quality cloth interior at 5 meters (16' 8") diameter with 4 side wall rings allow a high spring line to project above the heads of a seated audience! That is right, seated. Big drawback is that adults don't do floor without pain and protest. Gary at e-planetarium recommended the 4 ring side wall model as the dome is above seated audience and chairs can be placed to the wall actually giving more effective interior space. 4 rings will give 54" wall height and less weight for easier set up. Music will also be fantastic in this space! Black is the color of choice. Velcro tabs on the exterior for attaching banners and donor credits. Exterior walls can also function as exhibit attachment points with Velcro. It can be used outside if sheltered from wind and dirt. Check out http://www.go-domes.com/products.html
