Carnegie Science Center in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, US, has unveiled plans for a new permanent exhibition dedicated to “the next giant leap”, Mars.
Declared by the museum as its “most ambitious new experience” to be built since its foundation in 1991, Mars: The Next Giant Leap will be set over seven zones and 7,400sq ft (687sq m), with the exhibit exploring how the issues of sustainability, climate change, social justice, and equitable access to resources can shape humanity’s future on Mars and on Earth.
“The goal of Mars: The Next Giant Leap is to appeal to broad audiences and spark dialogue well beyond their visit, whether it leads them to think about space exploration, important social issues, or STEM careers they can pursue,” said Jason Brown, director of Carnegie Science Center.
“This exhibition is truly unique from any other exhibition as it provides engaging and unexpected perspectives on space exploration while at the same time illuminating why it is important to our everyday lives here on Earth.”
The project will cost US$4.48m (€4.6m, £4.1m) and will open to the public on November 19.
