Episode 21.5 of ComicPop Library

Matt and I walk through giving an audio tour of Wichita Kansas’ Exploration Place’s, Star Wars: Where Science Meets Imagination exhibit.  Along the tour we meet up with Exploration Place’s President Jan Luth for a quick interview and you get a brief sampling of the Millennium Falcon experience.  The transitions are a little rough, but we make it through the asteroid field.  If you have not been to the exhibit yet make your plans because the exhibit only runs through September 3.

Millennium Falcon Experience

   

When you go to Exploration Place’s “Star Wars: Where Science Meets Imagination” exhibit a little extra money to go on the Millennium Falcon experience.  This is a life size mock-up of the cockpit of the Millennium Falcon.  Video plays and you get to experience a ride through space with C-3PO as your guide.  It is similar to an IMAX experience.  The cockpit does not move, but the way the film is shot it makes you feel like you are moving.  This piece of the Star Wars exhibit is an extra $3.00 per person, but it is well worth it.  Pictured above are Matt, Logan and the last picture is April and Richard.
