Where Science Meets Imagination Where Science Meets Imagination is a must-see exhibit for Star Wars fans. Two major technological themes form the backbone of the exhibit: "Getting Around," focuses on hovering vehicles like Luke Skywalker's landspeeder, and the technology that might make such travel a reality in the real world; "Robots and People," explores how people relate to robots in Star Wars and in current daily living. Visitors to the exhibit can propel their own floating car along a magnetic track, try their hand at designing robots, and enter a large-scale model of a Jawa sandcrawler where they will hear C-3PO discuss the merits of R2-D2 with a real world robotics engineer. Star Wars transportation and "droid-botics" may be the centerpieces of the exhibit, but the compelling reasons to attend do not stop there. Where Science Meets Imagination will feature an exhibit of costumes and props from all six movies of the Star Wars saga, plus something that fans have been wishing for since 1977: the opportunity to sit in a full-size replica of the Millennium Falcon ****pit and experience the jump to hyperspace. The jump in the Falcon is a multimedia presentation that explores this galaxy in a ride to the edge of the universe.
