Enjoyed the Star Wars exhibit, we did.
September 4th, 2008
We went to the Star Wars exhibit at the Minnesota Science Museum a couple of weeks ago. Pretty cool stuff. They had some fun hands-on stuff; making maglev Lego cars and programming little robots.
My camera wasn’t capable of catching it, but the detail in those models is really incredible. It was also fun to see goofy little things like the cockpit of the medium-sized (post-episode IV) Millennium Falcon model had a big bent green LED as one of the mechanical “details”. Interestingly, Luke’s lightsaber wasn’t there. Here’s a few pictures:
