Sounds cool, there is generally a way to make these things happen :)

Yes, we have worked with the Boston Museum of Natural Science:

I see you have an affiliation with Missouri State, an easy way to do this is 
for us to feed
a machine at Missouri State, and that machine could then feed the machine(s) 
ingesting for the Discover Center. Clean and easy that way, if you have access 
to a machine at M State.
