If you live inNew York City, or are in town this weekend, you might want to check out theWorld Science Festival, specifically the NASA Orbit Pavilion currently located onNYU’s Gould Plaza.
The silver, shell-like structure that you see above lets visitors “listen to sonic interpretations of the actual movements of satellites orbiting Earth, view our planet through the 3-D programs, and conduct hands-on activities with NASA scientists.” Pretty cool, right?
The pavilion was designed by the Brooklyn-based STUDIOKCA with sound artist Shane Myrbeck for the good people at NASA.
Bedford+Bowery recently stopped by the pavilionto check it out first hand. Take a look at the site’s video above, and if you like what you see, you can stop by yourself at the cost of zero dollars. But hurry up, the festival only runs until Sunday.
