Title: The party of the century
Post by: Odonadon on September 01, 2005, 07:38:13 PM
Well, Alberta turns 100 years old today.  The plan is to have fireworks go off synchronized across the province in 30 minutes from now - if you're lucky you can still catch it:

Keep in mind Alberta is bigger than 4 Texas's, and if any satellites are available there will be imagery from space.  Check it out.

Where did this thread come from? I didn't ever see it. That was probably pretty sweet. Did they have a live feed?

There were 3 live feeds from around the province on the web, and two Edmonton TV stations were televising it.  I don't think any imagery was taken from space, thought.  If it was, I didn't hear about it.  But the fireworks were pretty cool from what I saw on TV :)
