Star Room 4K Upgrade for the Morgan Jones Planetarium
Our goal is to upgrade the projection system in the Star Room to 4K. This upgrade would include a new 4K resolution 12K lumen laser projector (double the resolution and brightness from our current one), a new Dell rack computer system to drive the projector, and a new Dell workstation to control it. More importantly, we would upgrade the Evans & Sutherland software package from the Digistar 6 lite (which we currently have and is very limited) to their brand new Digistar 2025 (Full version!) which is vastly superior and gives us access to new digital content and movies.

Decor and Display Updates for the Morgan Jones Planetarium
Our goal is to complete several updates to the lobby and hallways. These include - a new 25 foot long Human Space Exploration Timeline Display, a James Webb Space Telescope feature wall with manipulative mirror (partnering with ACU), an Astrogeology feature wall, a Lego and NASA Display, an Interactive Periodic Table Display, New high-resolution planet and space prints and much more.
