What are the most significant things you learned from this site visit? What questions arose from this visit?
I learned a lot about the dome itself that I didn’t know was true. I also learned that the dome tries to make everything as convenient for its visitors as possible. I learned what the ceiling of the dome was made of. I like how their press box is different than the others and how such a big place can be made with less money if the design is right.
