6 June, 2008 Rocket ScienceJoin us as we welcome the Maui Media Lab Mobile Production Facility, "The ScienceMobile" on June 18th at the entrance to Kaunakakai Harbor, Molokai. Maui Media Lab's ScienceMobile has been prepared specifically for the Molokai Community by Maui Media Lab's Upcountry Media Arts and Science Students and Hana School's Industrial Arts class over the last FOUR YEARS!
Maui Media Lab's thirty foot long ScienceMobile served well in its first life as a passenger bus for MEO INC. With a rebuilt engine, upgraded suspension, 12 volt and 120 volt power systems, GPS, Satellite Downlink, and a Microwave wireless digital broadband network uplink, multiple digital video cameras, a digital microscope, post production and voice over studio, installed by Maui Media Lab's East Maui and Upcountry Middle and High School Students for the Middle and High School Students of Molokai, the ScienceMobile provide Maui's only complete, self-powered, field community television production facility, digital theater, multi-track recording studio, planetarium, emergency communications and tele-medicine facility and most importantly a low altitude, in situ, environmental and biological earth monitoring platform.
Aloha Maui, Aloha Molokai.
Nobody getting left behind here. Next stop Lanai!
