The participants in this pilot program were from local middle schoools, and also included several individual familes. (More information on the pilot program.)

The mounts for the poles that the students decorated were distributed around the Visitor Center, so that their locations represent an accurate projection of the distribution of extra-solar systems relative to Earth.
