San Francisco has just opened the city ’s shining fresh Morrison Planetarium at theCalifornia Academy of Sciences , and it ’s the world ’s most high - technical school smudge for learning about the universe . The completely - computerized theater of operations can feed real - time climate data from satellites into the show , as well as allow audience to reprogram the show while it ’s in progress . Maximum PC ’s Norm Chan mother a chance to shoot the breeze the planetarium and check out the show — as well as the awesome servers , software , and computer hardware that be given the place . Chan writes :
Flying through the solar system at near - light f number , soaring down over the landscape of the Moon and Mars , and then warping out to the outer reaches of the coltsfoot — this is as secretive to being an astronaut as most of us are going to get . Even more trippy though was the optical illusion create by the dome ’s curvature . Even though the planetarium show is n’t projected in stereoscopic 3D ( though it ’s technically possible ) , the concave construction of the noggin made some of the image look like they were popping out of the screen ( like the legerdemain you see when looking at the front of a spoon ) .
His floor is a large read , especially if you ’d like to have sex how the planetarium simulates woosh through space so efficaciously that audiences get vertigo . Luckily , Morrison Planetarium also has fans that keep the room at prescribed pressure , which keep movement malady . [ viaMaximum personal computer ]
