  • Food & Beverages: Clear fluids only. Other food and drinks are not permitted inside the dome.

Sustainability at Its Core
Our dome is an air-supported structure powered by an innovative co-generation plant (cogen):

  • Powered by two natural gas engines (with backup options for grid electricity or a diesel generator).
  • Produces electricity for the dome and the entire campus.
  • Captures thermal energy from the engines to heat the dome during winter months.

We're Here to Help!
The facility is always staffed during operating hours. Look for our friendly team at the desk to the left as you enter the dome - they’ll be wearing red “Staff” shirts and are happy to answer any questions!
