Beginning May 24, the Science Center will welcome guests aboard TapeScape: International Tape Station!<\/p>\n<p>What exactly is a TapeScape? In case you missed it the first time around, it\u2019s an exhibition unlike any other! Using the humble product known as packing tape, the Science Center and designer\/artist Eric Lennartson are building an all-ages playground entirely out of packing tape wrapped around a metal frame \u2013 a TapeScape! Lennartson harnesses the tensile strength of tape \u2013 or its ability to stretch under stress \u2013 to design unique, multisensory installations strong enough for kids and adults to climb on and explore.<\/p>\n<p>For TapeScape\u2019s return to the Science Center, we had to go bigger! The International Tape Station is seven times larger than the TapeScape we built in 2018! It\u2019s a remarkable playscape structure inspired by the iconic design of the International Space Station! Equipped with state-of-the-art lighting and projection mapping technologies, this TapeScape is a fully immersive experience for guests.<\/p>\n<p>Guests will explore the exhibit to learn about life on the space station and the ongoing research happening aboard right now! Interactive hands-on activities offer fun for families as they learn more about materials and how they are used in space.<\/p>\n<p>The exhibition is focused on the dynamic intersection of materials science and the groundbreaking research at NASA\u2019s Glenn Research Center, showcasing the real-life Cleveland driven innovations aboard the station.<\/p>\n<p>Orbiting the perimeter of the tape station guests will also find a replica model of the Orion capsule, inviting them to step inside and explore the future of space research, along with authentic space artifact displays, a ground-level accessible tape tunnel, and more!<\/p>\n<p>Plan your visit soon, TapeScape is only here through September 2! This special temporary exhibition is included with general admission, and does require guests to wear socks.<\/p>\n<p>TapeScape was originally developed in 2011 at the Children\u2019s Museum of Southern Minnesota\u2019s PlayLab by Eric Lennartson, as a founding board member.<\/p>\n<p>Visit GreatScience.com for more information.<\/p>\n<p>About Great Lakes Science Center<br \/>\nGreat Lakes Science Center is one of the top ten museums in the nation as celebrated by the 2024 USA Today 10Best Readers\u2019 Choice travel award for Best Science Museum.
