Night Vision Experience

 

Visitors to the Lowell Flight Center will be able to participate in the Night Vision Experience. Through a partnership with Northrop Grumman Electro Optical systems, now L-3 Communications, we have been able to create a light sealed room with three Night Vision Goggles mounted at the end. A special scene has been created inside the room where the student will see a rescue in action. Using a grid, the student will locate and and identify items in the totally dark room using only the Night Vision Goggles.
