This is a fascinating historical dome, but I think it can be better. I think
they can make it more realistic, and more immersive. What’s the premise here?
Well, it’s the paleolithic age, which is part of the stone age. Cavemen are
working with stone tools, trying to figure out how to build societies, and
engaging in the first (loose) definitions of war. I mean, it depends on how
you define war. Were these organized, formal conflicts fought on
distinct battlefields? No. But they were more than just two guys swinging
clubs at each other during a disagreement. Their language was minimal, but
they did make plans, and they did go out to fight together, so I would
say that qualifies. The androids have been programmed with very low
intelligence, but heightened curiosity, leading them to try all sorts of
experiments, many of which don’t go too well. For now, these androids aren’t
aware that you’re there. They’re literally programmed to ignore you while you
watch from up close. I think they can do more with this. I think they can
adjust the visitor’s intelligence as well. I know they do this with
that zombie dome, where you can actually be transformed into a zombie. They
seem to understand how people can bring themselves back to normal once they’re
done with that. I don’t see any reason why the same principles can’t be
applied here. It’s cool to watch the cavemen, but I want to be an active
participant. I want to feel what it would have been like back then. In this
regard, it’s an excellent reenactment. I don’t know exactly what year it’s
supposed to be, but it moves in real time. I watched a guy learn how to cut a
rudimentary axe-sort of thing out of stone, and that was a unique experience.
That android will never do that again. He will never need to learn it again.
Fifty years from now, if I go back, he will be “dead”. I’m sure his
grandchildren will be starting to conduct their own tests, and learn their own
lessons. That’s so cool to me, that we’re watching history unfold—albeit as a
best guess based on archaeological evidence alone—and if you miss something,
you miss it. There’s no going back to see what someone else saw before you. I
think that’s really special. So if you’re interested in getting a glimpse of
what Earth was like millions of years ago, you better come now, because it
never stops changing.
