For those that have not have seen this exhibit at the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago IL. When I was in Chicago last May the exhibit was shut down so that they could move the submarine to a new indoor site. They hope to better preserve the sub in a climate controlled site. The link that I provide has time lapsed videos of the 5 day move.

The Museum of Science and Industry was a great place to spend time... when I was growing up. When I go back this May the exhibit should be open.. and planning on getting a lot of pictures.

While at this site ... take time to explore all of the features they have. The virtual tours are also great, along with the moving videos.
