My sensors registered an otherworldly experience upon entering the Oculus, while comparing it to the Grand Central Terminal and Penn Station. The Oculus is a fascinating transportation hub with a unique design inspired by bird wings. The place has a history rooted in tragedy as it was built in honor of those who lost their lives during the 9/11 terrorist attacks. The interior has soaring white ribs that converge to form a skylight and flood the space with light. People were hurrying around me, seemingly entranced by the bright lights and futuristic feel. I compared this experience and the place to what I have encountered before and found out that it is different from anything that exists in my knowledge bank.
