#3I loved to go to the Hansen planetarium in Salt Lake City as a kid to learn about the night sky. I remember when they swapped out the star projector with the first digital projector made by Evans & Sutherland in the early '80s. The stars weren't as sharp as the old system, but getting to virtually travel to other stars in our galaxy and see the constellations change shape from those new vantage points was a real trip.

#6University of Utah also has some really excellent free lectures on YouTube. I highly recommend Cem Yuksel's (a professor at university of Utah) channel if you're interested in learning about computer graphics.

#10The duo in 1969 developed the line-drawing system displays LDS-1 and LDS-2, the first graphics devices with a processing unit. They then built the E&S Picture System—the next generation of LDS displays.
I'm working with my limited and stereotyped knowledge of Utah, but is "line-drawing system" a easter egg reference to latter day saints?
