Our plan was to use the tools of interactive media, such as live video Webcasts and interactive Web sites, to illuminate the human endeavor behind scientific research. Other goals were to use a museum setting to cover contemporary science, and to reach an audience of millions, a seemingly impossible challenge. We met our goals, but learned a humbling amount about our audience, the process of science, and media technology along the way.
