I was there...

A strange location... Liquids don't always stay in their tubes... If fumes get thick, you can't open a window for fresh air... 378 km away racing by at 7.5 km/s.... kind of an ecologist's dream house... operates as a "ship in a bottle," cut off from the outside world... on Nov. 2, 2001 - one full year of continuous international human presence... grown from a 70-ton to a 150-ton complex with more volume than a three-bedroom house. This is the largest international engineering project ever undertaken in space. This is ISS (International Space Station).

And YES, I was there... from he comfort of an Earth seat, from the comfort of IMAX theatre.

Unlike traditional flat-screen IMAX theaters features a giant eight story domed screen and six-channel, digital wrap around sound with 13,000 watts of power coming from 44 speakers. It seats 295 people in special reclining chairs that accentuate the feeling of actually being in the movie. The Hackworth IMAX Dome Theater is the only theater of its kind in Northern California. It is located on The Tech's new home, a stunning landmark in downtown San Jose's skyline.
