Star Wars at the Science Museum: June 13 - August 24

Saturday May 10, 2008
The most hyped exhibit of the year is opening at the Science Museum of Minnesota on June 13. Star Wars: Where Science Meets Imagination was developed in collaboration with Lucasfilm Ltd and features real costumes (including Darth Vader, right) models and props from all six Star Wars films.

Interactive displays will explore real-life examples of robots and transportation inspired by Star Wars, and visitors will be invited to build their own robots and run a magnetic levitation train.

It's expected to be one of the most popular things to do this summer: admissions will be timed, and there is an extra admission charge for the exhibit. Reservations are strongly recommended, and tickets go on sale on May 21.
