For those who want to stand on the surface of the Mars while watching the sunset, an immersive experience through the solar system as an astro-naut will be within reach in Shenzhen at the �Neighborhood Earth� exhibition in UpperHills.

Designed and produced by Chronica Creative and in partnership with U.S. Space ' Rocket Center, the o% cial vis-itor�s center for NASA�s George C. Mar-shall Space Flight Center, the exhibition is divided into six areas in three * oors, including an immersive travel expe-rience of the solar system, a life-sized International Space Station model, hologram kiosks of space robots and planets, other universe-related exhibits and various hands-on activities.
