Library+of+Imagination

====1. Small Scale Model of the First Working Spaceship - We'd put this in our museum because it shows how we were once very narrow minded and only thought our community was the world. Then we opened our minds and we ventured out, not just out of our country, our universe. After years of research and failed moon-landing tests, on July 20, 1969, the United State's Apollo 11 was the first manned mission to land on the Moon. Because of its extreme difficulty and otherworldly nature, the first successful Moon landing is seen as being one of humanity's greatest achievements, A new era for mankind. ====

A Fake Human Brain - Every human being has vital senses: sight, hearing, touch, smell, etc., which lets us know what is going on around us making it possible to survive on this planet. Human Imagination is an additional sense, a special one that allows humans to reach much deeper into the mysteries of reality and become aware of the many wonders of nature. Imagination is not a vital sense, the Hominids survived for million of years without human Imagination. The Neanderthals may have had a powerful brain but they lacked the creative power of 'Human Imagination' that humans these days possess. Although there is no way of physically showing a mind, a brain is what controls the functions of your body and mind and without a brain we would not have this special sense, so after gaining more knowledge and evolution of the human brain, this is how human beings figured out what imagination is, and that is why we decided to put a fake brain model in our library. ====

**3.** Modern day fiction books - Books have changed a lot from the past with examples like twilight and the lighting thief, they both show how modern writers today use fictional things like gods and vampires to catch a reader’s attention. Authors use different techniques and styles in writing today with lots more variety in topics that are very creative and imaginative. Lot's of common books today have also been created into very successful movies as well like; Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Twilight, the Lightning Thief, The Chronicles of Narnia and lots more.

4. First Airplane - In 1899, the Wright Brothers designed their first aircraft: a small, biplane glider flown as a kite to test their solution for controlling the craft by wing warping. (Wing warping is a method of arching the wingtips slightly to control the aircraft's rolling motion and balance) They figured this out by spending a great deal of time observing birds in flight. They noticed that birds soared into the wind and that the air flowing over the curved surface of their wings created lift. They believed that they could use this technique to obtain roll control by warping, or changing the shape, of a portion of the wing. In 1900, the Wrights successfully tested their new 50-pound biplane glider, in both unmanned and piloted flights. Creating a form of transportation used very commonly in the modern day that humans use to take hundreds of people to a different destination, being one of that fastest ways of traveling. We think it was a revolutionary idea and would put the first ever airplane in our museum.

5. A model pyramid - For thousands of years, the largest structures on earth were pyramids: first the Red Pyramid in the Dashur Necropolis and then the Great Pyramid of Khufu both in Egypt. The largest pyramid in the world ever built is the Great Pyramid of Cholula, in the Mexican state of Puebla. It revolutionized the world of architecture, one of thie best structures ever created, the size of the pyramid was amazing considering the period it was built in. Like all the other wonders in the world it is spectacular and changed the way we live nowadays deserving a spot in our museum.

6. Alien Models - Extraterrestrial life means life that does not originate from Earth. It has never been proven whether any such life exists or ever existed in the past, but many scientists believe that life either exists or has existed, on Mars. Various claims have been made for evidence of extraterrestrial life, such as those listed in a 2006 New Scientist article, which the magazine describes as "hints" rather than proof, Also there have been a number of movies about such kind like : ET, Aliens, Star Wars, War of the Worlds and The Forth Kind. We think it takes loads of imagination to create something like this like another form of life, and takes even more imagination to get some people to believe it.

7. Mars Rover - A Mars rover is an automated motor vehicle which propels itself across the surface of Mars after landing. The Rovers have many advantages over stationary landers: they can examine more territory, they can be directed to interesting features, they can place themselves in sunny positions to weather winter months and they have the knowledge of how to perform very remote robotic vehicle control. There are three successful Mars rovers, all of which were robotically operated. The Jet Propulsion Laboratory managed the Mars Pathfinder mission with its Sojourner rover and currently manages the Mars Exploration Rover Mission with its two rovers, named Spirit and Opportunity, for NASA’s Office of Space Science, Washington, DC.

8. Satellites - They are a way of looking at our universe and far away parts of our planet without venturing out of our homes. It is now part of our daily life, unlike in the past when all we needed was food, shelter and water and if we took it out of our lives, life would be a lot more less chaotic but of course, there are many reasons for them. Common types include military and civilian Earth observation satellites, communication satellites, navigation satellites, weather satellites, and research satellites. Space Stations and human spacecraft in orbit are also satellites.

9. Evolution of sports equipment - How in the beginnig everything was made from everyday material such as leather and wood but nowdays they are made from uncommon stuff such as car tire and carbon-fiber reinforced polymer. It also shows how much sports and life styles these days have changed so we'd like to show people that.

10. Evolution of Video games - It used to be just a simple joy stick and two buttons if you were lucky but now its all theses fancy controls with hard drives and internet connection, there are even ones where they detect the movement all over your body not just controlling everything through your hands. From this you know the extreme changes people have worked hard on to create and we think it'd be a fun interactive station to put inside our museum. ** to []** <span style="font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">**http://www.play.vg/games/1-Pac-Man.html**  <span style="display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 110%;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">**http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7B0Z6FQPE1Y** <span style="display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 110%;">11. 3D TV - How black and white television changed into looking like its real and happening right in front of you. When it first came out you could only watch it in theaters and it has been updated to a simple television which can be watched from home. It's difficult to create this effect and we think a 3D TV is a good item to put in our museum. <span style="display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 110%;">

<span style="display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 110%;">12. Mona Lisa is a sixteenth-century portrait painted in oil on a poplar panel in Florence, Italy by Leonardo da Vinci during the Renaissance. <span style="display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 24px;">The painting is a half-length portrait of a seated woman whose facial expression is frequently described as enigmatic. Others believe that the slight smile is an indication that the subject is hiding a secret. The uncertainty of the subject's expression, the monumentality of the composition, and the subtle modeling of forms and atmospheric illusionism are all qualities that have contributed to the continuing fascination and study of the work. This painting took da Vinci approximately seven years to paint, not including the time he left it unfinished. There is lots of curiosity and uncertainty in this painting that makes someone wonder and imagine what it's about and how it was made, a perfect object for a library of imagination.

<span style="display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 110%;"> <span style="display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 110%;"> <span style="display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 110%;">Our Library of Imagination is a treehouse because we believe kids are the ones with the craziest, detailed imagination and one of a kids favorite spots to be is in a treehouse so that's what we chose. There are three floors in our treehouse and all the floors and stairs are made out of glass so you could see what's underneath you. There are two interactive parts in our museum, the Evolution of Video Games room, with a 3DTV in it to play all the high tech and super ancient video games all popping out at you as if it were really there and there is a tennis court where you can try out all the tennis rackets and see how they have changed over time. At the top, the roof can be opened and there is a telescope inside of it so you can see all the planets and stars. <span style="display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 110%; text-align: center;"> <span style="display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 110%; text-align: center;"> <span style="display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 110%; text-align: center;"> <span style="display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 110%; text-align: center;"> <span style="display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 110%; text-align: center;"> <span style="display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 110%; text-align: center;"> <span style="display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 110%; text-align: center;"> <span style="display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 110%; text-align: center;"> <span style="display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 110%; text-align: center;"> <span style="display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 110%; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 130%;">The top three objects <span style="display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 110%; text-align: center;"> <span style="display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 110%; text-align: center;"> <span style="display: block; font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 110%; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 120%;">The top three objects i chose are the cloud ships, Teslas visionary drawings such as the death ray and Ghandi's spectacles. Cloud ships are ships that were created by John Latham. They were designed to help stop global warming by creating 2% more thin low-level clouds called marine stratocumulus it could slow down or even stop the effects of global warming caused by the high levels of CO2 in our atmosphere and his plan was to have a fleet of this which to spray sea water to make clouds. I choose this because it shows imagination can start from anywhere anytime. I chose Teslas death ray and his other inventions because they were well ahead of their time, changed the way we live nowadays and were original ideas that weren't like anything since before, for his time period. The final object I chose was Ghandi's specatacles and I chose this because, first of all, I have a lot of respect for Ghandi himself and his ideas and thoughts, he was a great mind and he had a lot of imagination and he said his spectacles gave him the idea of defeating Britain in non violent ways which is very creative because most battles are fought with violence so that is why i choose this item. That concludes my choices of the top three items.
