Anchorage Light Speed Planet Walk050
in Anchorage, AK 99501about Anchorage Light Speed Planet Walk:
The Anchorage Light Speed Planet Walk is a scale model of the solar system that stretches from the Imaginarium to Kincaid Park.
It takes about 8 minutes to walk from the Sun station at 5th and G to the Earth station at 5th and K, just as it takes 8 minutes for a light beam to travel from the real Sun to the real Earth. To get all the way to Pluto, at Kincaid Park, takes about 5-1/2 hours on foot. You can travel at "warp speed" though, by bike, skates, or skis!
