Double Vision Photography | H.R. MacMillan Space Centre - Vancouver BC
The H.R. MacMillan Space Centre, founded 1968, is an astronomy museum in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, located at Vanier Park in Vancouver. The Space Centre is named for H. R. MacMillan, a British Columbia industrialist and philanthropist. The building was designed in the 1960s by architect Gerald Hamilton to house what was then called The Centennial Museum. The facility was refurbished and renovated to include the Space Centre exhibit space in 1997-98 by Matsuzaki Wright Architects.
We put this video together to feature the Architectural Photos we captured of the facility and to illustrate some of the workflow that contributes to the process and production that is part of DOUBLE VISION's Architectural Photography Gallery. The H.R. MacMillan Space Centre is a place Vancouverites either hate or love, to many it sticks out like an eye sore, to design enthusiasts it's a revered part of the city's history, the Golden 60s. We find it intriguing none the less, the contrast of the retro design struggles to find a way to fit in with the city's modern glass skyline. This perhaps is part of the appeal and yes it may look like the worlds largest roulette wheel but one things for sure it's definitely not lost in space just in Vancouver.

Kids visited a space center for an adventure with a show of the solar system, constellations and more!

We decided that because we can't afford to travel far away to some super cool country, we will travel our own instead. Tons of people fly into Vancouver every day and dream about coming here on vacation so why shouldn't we be enjoying it too?
Over the course of time we hope to visit as many cool places in Vancouver as we can while saving to eventually take you with us to other countries and around the globe.
In the end, the space centre was a lot of fun but also has the potential to be kind of boring if you don't make the most of it! So go willing to have fun and make sure you see one of the shows in the planetarium start theatre cause it was amazing! (We saw phantom of the universe and 10/10 would recommend).
Thanks for watching and please subscribe if you haven't yet!

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
The H.R. MacMillan Space Centre, founded 1968, is an astronomy museum in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, that is located at Vanier Park in Vancouver. Inside the building, there are live demonstrations on science in the GroundStation Canada Theatre, exhibits and games in the Cosmic Courtyard, and shows about astronomy in the Planetarium Star Theatre. Next to the building is the Gordon MacMillan Southam Observatory. This centre of astronomy is a popular attraction in Vancouver.
The Space Centre is named for H. R. MacMillan, a British Columbia industrialist and philanthropist. The building was designed in the 1960s by architect Gerald Hamilton to house what was then called The Centennial Museum. The planetarium was added as part of a pre-construction re-design. Outside the museum is a sculpture by George Norris called The Crab. Norris's sculpture won a 1967 design competition. The Space Centre originated as the H.R. MacMillan Planetarium until its re-branding in the 1990s when it expanded to include exhibit space into one of the wings of the building it shares with the Museum of Vancouver. The facility was refurbished and renovated to include the Space Centre exhibit space in 1997-98 by Matsuzaki Wright Architects.
