More Buhl Planetarium Alumni
In 1989, in celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of The Buhl
Planetarium and Institute of Popular Science / Buhl Science Center, a book was produced listing
the achievements of the many Buhl alumni over the previous fifty years.
The official title of the book is "Lives Touched...Worlds Changed,"
Fifty Years of Alumni Achievements published by the Buhl Science
Center, A Component of The Carnegie, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
This book was published to demonstrate how valuable Buhl
has been to thousands of students and visitors through the years. In particular, it was amazing how many people cited visits to Buhl Planetarium / Buhl Science Center in their decision to seek a career in the sciences, technology, engineering, mathematics, and computer science.
The funding received
to
construct and operate The Buhl Planetarium and Institute of Popular
Science, from the Buhl Foundation; the City, County, State, and Federal
governments; and numerous other foundations and benefactors, has had a
positive impact on the lives of thousands of residents of Pittsburgh
and Western Pennsylvania and
was money well spent! Hence, the working title of this book, prior to
publication, was The Proof of the Pudding.
On the sixtieth anniversary of The Buhl Planetarium and Institute of
Popular Science, 1999 October 24, the Andrew Carnegie Free Library and Music Hall of Carnegie, Pennsylvania is
proud to reissue this
book, in electronic form, for a worldwide audience on the Internet's World
Wide Web.
