Self-reported Learning 51%: Ecological concepts/facts 26%: Human-caused ecological change 23%: Human use of resources 13%: Approaches/groups working on regional issues Highlights from Public Response to Shows

Top Reactions Thinking about complex Earth systems and interrelationships Visualizing concepts of time and space Sense of how small the Earth is Highlights from Public Response to Shows

Immersive Experience 81% reported dome enhanced understanding by … 39%: “gave me perspective…” (connections) 32%: “allowed me to see…” (visuals) 22%: “made me understand…” (learned info) 10%: “It made me feel…” (affective response) Highlights from Public Response to Shows

Affective Outcomes 10% of respondents: dome presentation promoted an affective response Inspiration, caring, personal relationship These audience members ranked statements most frequently: 1.Feeling the need to take care of Earth 2.Feeling a sense of the sacred in regards to Earth 3.Amazement at the beauty of what was shown
