Description
As the expedition headquarters, ‘The Plastiki - Mission Control’ will be a hub of discovery where fellow adventurers -- adults and children alike -- can learn about the expedition: a 10,000 nautical mile voyage across the Pacific Ocean on a boat made almost entirely out of reclaimed plastic soda bottles on a mission to beat waste.

By interacting with almost a dozen energy-efficient HP TouchSmart IQ816 PCs, visitors can find blueprints, sketches, expedition equipment, maps and films, along with fun ways to interact with the Plastiki expedition. Guests will leave the interactive educational center with a better understanding of the effects that waste has on the planet.
