International Spaceflight Museum

Watch this YouTube video by SL resident Earth Primbee to see some of the ISM exhibits in action, including the Titan II rocket launch, and images of several other exhibits. Some of this video was recorded on Elon's Moon platform, and other parts feature NASA film clips. All in all, a great video!

The Stanford Metaverse Meetup was held last week (08 Nov 2007) simultaneously at Stanford, California and in Second Life (at the International Spaceflight Museum, in a purpose-built dome on the roof of the VAB in Spaceport Bravo). Now the video is available online.

On August 12, Paisley Beebe interviewed me on her weekly talk show 'Tonight Live with Paisley Beebe'. You can watch it on the SLCN.TV website here.

Joe Linden turned up during our planning group meeting Saturday to ask if we would mind if Linden Lab included Spaceport Alpha in the Second Life beta test grid. What is especially cool about this beta version is that there is capability to use integrated voice! Read Joe's blog about voice in the beta test for more information on that.

A recent visitor told me he had come to Second Life as a result of seeing a video of our museum on YouTube. I did a search of that site and found four entries there. Click here to view them.

As it turns out, these vids are all from the Virtualbridges (Worldbridges) vlog tour of the museum shortly after it opened last June. We have a link to their site here in our blog from that time. It must be true what they say, that on the internet nothing ever dies.

A new series of four short video documentaries includes one with several clips of the museum. The series, titled "Second Lives - Stories from a Digital Frontier" can be seen in the Avalon sim this week. It was produced by the UK film company Dangerous Films and shown on the UK's Channel 4. The films can also be seen this week in the Avalon sim. To see the one with the clips of the museum, go to Avalon (194,193,38), select the "Tim Guest" film (by clicking on that button), then go to one of the many video screens in the area and press the play button on your Movie Control.

Artilect Prototype has created a beautiful video where he shows brief clips of himself dancing at many places in SL, including the International Spaceflight Museum. It's based on a similar series of videos where a guy named Matt dances at places all over the real world.
