Visitors are being dazzled by the new space show, "The Search for Life: Are We Alone?" at the American Museum of Natural History's (AMNH) Hayden Planetarium at the Rose Center for Earth and Space (in Champaign, Illinois? Sometimes press releases omit the most basic information). What significant is that the show was developed for the CAVE system using real-time interaction between staff at NCSA on the University of Illinois campus in Urbana-Champaign and at the Rose Center in New York City. Connection between the two sites was provided by Internet II in a demonstration of what can be accomplished with high speed networking. If you don't have time to read the article, at least take a few seconds and view one of the images.CRLF
