Each of our eight galleries deliver a wow experience as campers travel through time viewing over 75 air and space craft from hot air balloons to an actual lunar module. With the Leroy R. and Rose W. Grumman IMAX Dome Theatre and the Red Planet Café, a visit to the Cradle of Aviation is a safe and exciting field trip, right in your own backyard. The Cradle is a 150,000 square feet facility providing you and your group with a safe and spacious environment thats sure to please everyone in your group. Were located in Garden City on the site of the historic Mitchel Field airbase right next to Nassau Community College and the Nassau Coliseum. 2007 Camp Workshop & Guided Tour
Guided Tour: The IMAX Theatre Experience WIRED TO WIN – Surviving the Tour de France. Following the 2003 Tour de France, Wired to Win explores the capabilities of the brain, integrating IMAX® technology, cutting-edge computer and medical imagery, and real-life racing drama to show how the brain responds to stimuli—and adapts for success as we learn, train, and practice. HURRICANE ON THE BAYOU – Takes viewers on a breathtaking tour of one of the most vibrant places in America, the Louisiana bayou and the city of New Orleans. Tragically, the wetlands are eroding into the sea at the speed of one acre every thirty minutes, leaving the entire region more vulnerable to major hurricanes. An emotional portrayal of this environmental calamity and the staggering effects of one of the most devastating natural disasters in American history, Hurricane Katrina. |
