Expand info on "new digital projection system."[edit]

I think it would be good to expand on the information about The Dome. Currently, it just says "In 2014 the museum upgraded its five-story theater, The Dome, with a new digital projection system". I think it could add information about the specs. For example,

It is no longer an IMAX system. It is an Evans & Sutherland (E&S) Digistar 5 system. It is an all digital system that combines five Christie 4K LED projectors to provide 8K resolution at 120Hz with active stereo 3D capabilities.
