From 19 November, visitors to ArtScience Museum at the Marina Bay Sands Singapore will embark on a once-in-a-lifetime expedition to Singapore’s largest space flight exhibition, NASA – A Human Adventure. The exhibition launches the Art and Science of Space season, a series of unique workshops, screenings, performances and other programmes, which will extend well into 19 March 2017.
NASA – A Human Adventure: 19 November 2016 to 19 March 2017
NASA – A Human Adventure brings visitors on an enthralling journey into the world of space exploration, which encompasses the world’s most significant accomplishments in space technology. In five galleries, over 200 historically significant artefacts are on show, including many items which have flown in space.
One of the centrepieces of NASA – A Human Adventure is a full scale construction of the front section of NASA’s iconic Space Shuttle. The massive exhibit enables visitors to see the flight deck, where astronauts fly the orbiter during actual launch and landings, and the mid- deck, where shuttle crew eat, sleep and work on experiments. The Space Shuttle was the world’s first reusable spacecraft for transporting cargo to space and back.
The exhibition also includes a new project commissioned by ArtScience Museum titled, Indonesia Space Science Society, by Indonesian artist, Venzha Christ. Working with scientists and engineers in Indonesia, Christ established Indonesia Space Science Society as a framework for the exploration of space from a different perspective.
Visitors can also look forward to some of the most extraordinary innovations developed by NASA over the past decades.
