Sci-fi fans to get new museum in Seattle

Thanks to Jen Young for This One From CNN on a shrine dedicated to the art, literature and film of science entertainment, courtesy of billionaire Paul Allen.

Tentatively named the Science Fiction Experience, the exhibit is slated to open in the summer of 2004 within the confines of Allen’s Experience Music Project (EMP) in the shadow of Seattle’s Space Needle.

Among the items on display will be a complete set of autographed first editions of the Foundation Trilogy by Isaac Asimov, a collection of “Astounding Science Fiction” magazines and artwork depicting the future.
