I knew it was being built, but I had no idea what was going into it.I love the architecture, and how each of the 3 main hills of the roof enclose the 3 main things: aquarium, planetarium, and rain forest. Wow... I'm so impressed. I never allowed myself to watch the Teletubbies for more than 3 minutes total ever, and fortunately this will outlast that horrid show and only be a faint and horrible dream for those of you scarred. I think if you ever visit this place you'll never remember the reference because it will become forgotten. I am so excited that such a cool thing is being built within blocks of where I live!

You seem a little biased toward the local habitat, there's a little more out there to be concerned with than just your own planetary backyard you know.
