Bradley Edwards and the Space Elevator part of DaVinci exhibit at Chicago’s Museum of Science & Industry

Where did the summer go?  In May, I had posted that as part of an exhibit at Chicago’s Museum of Science & Industry honoring Leonardo da Vinci, ideas from “Modern-day Leonardo’s” were on display.  One of them is Bradley Edwards and the Space Elevator.

I finally made it to the exhibit today and it was very worthwhile.  The da Vinci exhibit itself is very interesting – he truly was a remarkable man.  But I enjoyed the people and ideas being displayed in the “Modern-day Leonardo’s” even more.  In addition to static displays, there was also a video display.  For the Space Elevator portion of the video display, they played the Alan Choi video.  The exhibit runs through Labor Day.  Admission to the Museum and the daVinci exhibit is $21.00 for an adult and $16.00 for a child.

Below are some pictures from the exhibit (Click on the thumbnail for a full-scale version).
