When Armand Spitz was first developing planetariums he punched holes in a can to test light sources. Here’s @ProfMcConville holding that can at @SpitzInc. #museumchat #astronomy #CANwebuildityesweCAN

The IMAX Dome at @CincyMuseum goes NanoSeam during their massive restoration of Union Terminal, an art deco masterpiece. This time-lapse shows the repanel process. Most projection domes can be brought up to NanoSeam's seamless appearance - inquire within! https://t.co/OMrs2xMBhD

@WIHSplanetarium @planetarium_51 @SenecaCollege While we're at it, here's the order for the A4RPY at @SenecaCollege. Anybody else want to see their archival order while we're spelunking in the big blue wall of file cabinets?

[Spitz, Inc. @SpitzInc]

@WIHSplanetarium @planetarium_51 @SenecaCollege And, here's the original sales order, confirming your A3P once had an elevator (line 6, "Lowering Device"). Looks like the pedestal has been replaced at some point in the intervening 53 years, but the elevator pit is probably still under there!
