A large display was set up that included many artifacts from 2001: A Space Odyssey. On hand were photographs, posters, paintings, models, display boards, and many other pieces of 2001 paraphernalia. Highlight of the display were an original red spacesuit helmet and also the light blue flightsuit worn by Keir Dullea from the collection of Dennis Gilliam. Models included the large scale Orion III, Aries 1-B, and the Moonbus. Original 2001 hand-colored 11x14-inch lobby cards, record albums, calendars, press kits, blueprints, and much more were on hand.

One of these boards includes a detailed timeline of the events from 2001 as described in the original draft script, movie, and novel. (It does not include inconstant dates and events from any of the sequels.)
