Seattle has become a bastion for science research and a hub for technology. Since the 1962 Fair, Microsoft has transformed the way we live and work, Amazon.com has expanded the way we shop, the Seattle Aquarium has become a leader in marine conservation and education – and much more. The celebration will be a unique opportunity for people to see the breadth and depth of technological innovation here and a chance to explore what can happen in the next half century. One of the highlights of Science and Technology month will be a major Science Festival organized by Pacific Science Center.
