I showed a version of this video to my students for the past 30 years (not a joke!) see Click it T Click

Thanks for sending this post modern version, but the Charles and Ray Eames version is a classic educational film from the 1960's!

Good one Carl!

I have visited many of the Museum/Planetariums along the Lakeshore. They are world class and exceptional! :clapping:
