Join us to hear some strange aviation and space tales not usually presented in the light of day such as:
The frightening hallucinations that plagued astronomer George Ellery Hale; the obsessions of aviation pioneer Howard Hughes; the bizarre stories about Amelia Earhart's disappearance; the "face" on Mars; the Great Moon Hoax of 1835; the WWI German ace, Baron von Richthofen and the “Red Baron” mystique; and amateur astronomer Percival Lowell, whose theories convinced millions that Martians existed.
After hearing an array of amazing stories, visitors can gather at 7:30 p.m. in the theater for “Klingon 101,” with Marc Okrand, creator of the Star Trek language. Okrand will discuss the development and uses of the Klingon language. The language has proven so popular that several Shakespearian plays have been translated into it and dedicated Star Trek fans still converse in it.
After the presentation, Okrand will be available to autograph one of his several books: The Klingon Dictionary, Klingon for the Galactic Traveler, and Star Trek Power Klingon.
This is a great seasonal event for teens and adults. Wear a costume and come prepared to learn a few words of Klingon!
