SECCHI FULL-DOME IMMERSIVE MOVIE SEQUENCE
1. Compile and rectify real HiRes SECCHI Images at Planetarium Hamburg
with support of team at University of Goettingen
2. Combine squence with computer animations of the satellite and footage
from launch
3. NASA/STEREO Team approves educational and PR use of this sequence in
planetaria
4. Create fulldome master frames for use in digital planetaria
5. Disseminate finished sequence for free to all digital planetaria worldwide
via the International Planetarium Society (IPS)
…combining Astronomy and Space Sciences
…with environmental and life sciences at HafenCity Hamburg
FUTURE BIG STEP …
