ah, that's great!

> What time frame are you think of?

well ... :)
as much as you can think of putting together - you know the material.
and yes, the - the testing photos are supergreat as well!

here you find some pics from the space where we will do the
exhibition, it is this small noncommercial art center, called ESC, where i am in
charge of the program.

one idea at the moment is to have a huge projection of (probably) nasa-photos
from earth in the room with the high seiling, and have the satellite 
hanging from the ceiling 
and then there is much space for additional material, like videos or
photos, either in the same room, or the one with the windows.

so whatever you think, you can give us, is great.
and of course we will document this al, and put in on our website and
you can take this for your site then, as well.
