Indiana State Museum announces Star Wars. Where Science Meets Imagination

The Indiana State Museum announces Star Wars:® Where Science Meets Imagination, an exhibition on view May 25, 2013, and running through Sept. 2, 2013.

The exhibit explores the Star Wars films, the real science behind them, and the research that may someday lead to real-life versions of the technologies seen in the films. The exhibit also features props and costumes from all six Star Wars films.

Star Wars: Where Science Meets Imagination, presented by Bose® Corporation, is the largest traveling exhibition in the history of the Indiana State Museum and includes a full-sized replica of the cockpit of the Millennium Falcon from Episode IV, providing a “jump to lightspeed” experience for small groups of visitors at a time.

“The exhibit will be fun and educational for many generations of Indiana State Museum visitors to experience the technology and robotics that can apply to the real world,” said Traci Cromwell, Director of Collections. “We are excited to offer this amazing exhibit to all Star Wars fans.”

Tickets will go on sale Aug. 1, including gift certificates for holiday purchases. – www.indianamuseum.org
