LEAD, S.D. (AP) — A planetarium film that could reach as many as 110 million people each year is set to feature the underground dark-matter lab located in a shuttered gold mine in Lead (LEED).
Producers of the film tell the Black Hills Pioneer (http://bit.ly/QOIAPG ) that “Secret of the Dark Galaxy: From the Higgs Boson to Dark Matter” will explain dark matter. The show starts with the Big Bang theory and takes viewers on a trip through dark-matter theories and experiments.
