Day Off - Part Three

So I just got to the Science Museum in time to see the 3D IMAX presentation showing the initial building of the ISS, narrated by Tom Cruise. Afterwards I wandered around the Museum, and found the simulators, where I was told to visit the Force Field ride, which as a Plus member I could get on free. This was a 3D animated simulation (including movement) of Apollo 15's mission. It was fairly realistic, especially the touchdown in the sea. I also Had a look at the "Science in the 18th Century" exhibit.

I then went looking for dinner, and had some chicken curry and rice, then back to the museum for the late opening. Doors opened 6:45 and I got back inside by 7:00 so I was able to get to a lecture on "Energy and Climate" then wandered around again until just before 9:00 when I got into the final Weapons of Sound the original junk band, they included a bit of a workshop, where all the audience took part..

After this I left and went home.
