The U.S. Pavilion at Night
A stunning view of the edge of one of the exhibit platforms. 
Huge paintings by well-known American artists adorned the dome's interior.
Destination Moon, the pavilion's much-hyped space exhibit.
Life-sized models of satellites and rockets hung on enormous parachutes.
The Minirail, as it entered the dome.
The dark spots were actually retractable screens, used for climate control.photos: Bill Dutfield, via expo67.ncf.ca

Ultra groovy, Jason. I have this hope that one day the US Pavillion will be converted to some kind of cultural centre rather than just a boring science museum...
They should re-cover the dome with some kind of "skin"... although flammability-wise, acrylic proved to be a bad idea!
This is so interesting! Ron and I had cycled there recently, and I was trying to tell him about the US Pavillion. Now he can see for himself!
Woah... the US pavilion is GORGEOUS.
