The premise of the experience was that the Carnegie Museum
had just constructed a time machine that would allow the audience
to travel back in time to the Cretaceous period and conduct research.
The Time Machine |
|
The audience is told in a
preflight movie that,
so as not to disturb the native wildlife,
the time machine had been built to resemble a Quetzalcoatlus -
a pterosaur with a 40 foot wingspan.
|
| Once the audience has been familiarized with the leaning control
system used to fly their time machine, they are launched back in time
to the Cretaceous period. |

While in flight, the audience collectively steers their vessel by
leaning left and right in their seats.
If they saw any interesting wildlife,
the audience could fly the craft near to the animal of
interest and take a photograph. |
| At the conclusion of their journey,
the audience gets a chance to review the pictures they had taken during
their flight and receive commentary from the museum scientists. |
