Griffith Observatory Special

Huell takes a special look at the restoration of The Griffith Observatory. Built in 1935 and serving space curious Angelenos and the greater scientific community for almost 70 years, the Observatory required significant remodeling and expansion when it was closed for renovations in 2002. With the restoration completed this fall, this scientifically vital and historically significant architectural landmark re-emerges to serve well into the 21st Century. In this special one-hour episode Huell takes an insider's tour with Griffith Observatory director Dr. Edward Krupp to see the state-of-the-art planetarium theater, new presentation theater and two brand-new exhibit areas. Join Huell as he takes an exclusive look at one of Los Angeles's treasures before it was officially opened to the public on November 3rd, 2006.
