Museum visitors take an inter-planetary adventure with virtual reality technology

Ingenium - Canada's Museums of Science and Innovation

If you’ve ever dreamed of exploring a distant planet, now’s your chance – and you don’t even have to leave Ottawa to do it.

Initially used by the United States Navy, the Felixstowe F-5L maritime patrol flying boat in the photo we saw in the first part of this article was converted into a 12 passenger airliner at some point in the early 1920s.

Three cheers for Ingenium’s volunteers

Ingenium - Canada's Museums of Science and Innovation

It’s National Volunteer Week 2018, and here at Ingenium we have so much to celebrate! Over the coming week, the Ingenium Channel will be profiling just a few of our amazing volunteers.

The old proverb, “Many hands make light work” seems especially fitting in the context of volunteerism at Ingenium. At each of our three museums – the Canada Agriculture and Food Museum, the Canada Aviation and Space Museum, and
