Two Brand New Exhibits Opening on March 8, 2014 at the U.S. Space and Rocket Center Raise the Roof If walls could talk, what would they say? From classical physics to new discoveries in environmental science, from deeply held cultural beliefs to spectacular feats of engineering, buildings reveal fascinating stories of human ingenuity and science. Interactive components explore the physics of architecture. An object theater examines a house as a system. Other components look at houses of the world, and allow visitors to build their own structures. Raise the Roof draws the visitor into the extraordinary world of buildings as they have never experienced it before. Within this exhibit, the U.S. Space & Rocket Center® will also feature Robert Bigelow’s inflatable space station and an inflatable structure from DRASH like those used by military in the field. UNCLASSIFIED: The Military Kid Art Show This is the first traveling museum exhibit exploring the life of a military child through art. Contemporary and cutting-edge, its mission is to educate and raise awareness of the military child subculture and its profound, lifelong impact on an individual. The exhibit will stimulate discussion panels, arts classes and other programs which honor the service and sacrifice of military children – past and present – and engender compassion and understanding between military and civilian communities.
