Some Details for those who are interested :
build materials (plywood, MDF, paint, TVs, LEDs, etc.) were only about 15k-20k + labour...lots and lots of labour (took about 1 year)
took me about 1 year to complete
main screen in 120" (Elite Cinegrey) + Epson Projector 5040UB, Denon 7.2 surround.
Earth wall is really 3 x cheap LCD TVs in portrait mode + Matrix QuadHead2Go Q155 controller and PC running : https://www.3planesoft.com/space-scre... or various videos (I change it up once and a while)
background sounds were from the latest StarTrek movie
side LCARS displays are again 2 x cheap LCD TVs running LCARS47 : https://www.lcars47.com/
Blast door is heavy (plywood) with pneumatics. Manual override, safety sensors & power backup (UPS)
Automation via Homeseer (HS3) - Philips Hue, Logitech, Insteon I/O, Shelly RGBW2
Room has a window behind an easily removable panel + emergency lighting
chairs are 4 x LazyBoy (very comfy) recliners
LEDs & Hue bulbs change colour. Blue is just for show. Low RED for movie watching, yellow/white for regular TV viewing.
Power usage is actually quite low. Other than the projector, TVs are only on for a few minutes...they turn off when we watch TV/movies. Room is completely OFF otherwise.
as an IT guy, "computer" is used too frequently gets annoying having Alexa chime in (especially if I'm working from home). Ideally I'd opt for JARVIS...but I'll just want to wait until a) Amazon/Google allow for custom WAKE words...or b) I decide to tackle a non-cloud solution.

No I'm not single. Happily married (3 kids) for 25+ years.... wonderful & supportive geeky wife (those are the BEST! )

Yes this room is TOTALLY my inner 12 year old and I make no apologies. I'm a total space/scifi/tech geek and it was really fun creating a cool theater room for my family to watch movies. (which we love to do) and NASA/SpaceX launches.
