MCALLEN, TX — The doors to the International Museum of Art & Science (IMAS) Theater reopen to the public on November 16, 2018, now that the Science on a Sphere® exhibit has been fully refurbished and is ready for viewing. “Science On a Sphere®,” also known as SOS, is a revolutionary, state-of-the-art exhibit designed by NASA and the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to illustrate planetary and celestial systems like never before.

Educator-led presentations take place every day, featuring stunning images from the Hubble Space Telescope, orbital satellites, space probes, and other sources shown on this three-dimensional, six-foot-wide sphere.

The SOS is a unique and captivating educational tool that is used in science museums, visitor centers, zoos, aquariums, laboratories, and schools around the world, and it is integrated into the daily schedule at the International Museum of Art & Science in the heart of McAllen, Texas.
