The Space Science Institute (SSI) will design, develop and travel a 3,500 square foot exhibition about the outer planets of the solar system and their satellites, whose presence contributes to making Earth habitable. Designed around the theme "Living With Giants," the exhibition will feature hands-on interactive visitor experiences that describe the Solar System, engage visitors in learning about planetary exploration, focus on the planetary science of Saturn and its moons and provide access to current information from the Cassini-Huygens mission to Saturn. Special attention will be given to designing "Space for Kids," an exhibit area targeted specifically for young learners and their families and caregivers. SSI will collaborate with leading scientists and educators as well as NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory to create education programs and a virtual exhibit website to extend the science learning of the exhibition.

空间科学研究所（SSI）将设计，开发和旅行一个3，500平方英尺的展览，介绍太阳系外行星及其卫星，它们的存在有助于使地球适合居住。 展览围绕“与巨人一起生活”这一主题设计，将以亲身体验的互动式参观者体验为特色，介绍太阳系，让参观者了解行星探索，重点介绍土星及其卫星的行星科学，并提供卡西尼-惠更斯号土星使命的最新信息。 将特别注意设计“儿童空间”，这是一个专门针对年轻学习者及其家人和照顾者的展区。 SSI将与领先的科学家和教育工作者以及NASA的喷气推进实验室合作，创建教育计划和虚拟展览网站，以扩展展览的科学学习。
