Teave

Kiired faktid: Sa saad seista silmitsi Tyrannosaurus rexi skeletiga, mille kolju on üle 4 jala lai, pakkudes hingematvat mastaabitunnet. Kogudes on hoiul üle 40 miljoni eksponaadi, alates väikestest putukate mälestustest kuni hiiglaslike fossiilsete luudeni, nii et isegi lühike külastus tundub nagu sügav sukeldumine.

Esiletõstmised: Sue, Tyrannosaurus rexi, kelle avastas Sue Hendrickson 1990. aastal, on umbes 90% komplektne ja ulatub umbes 40 jalga, nii et tema hambad tunduvad hirmutavalt lähedal, kui seisad tema lõua all. Klaasi taga saad jälgida teadlasi mikroskoopide all õrnalt fossiile kivist tolmust harjaste ja pintsettidega vabastamas, pehme kraapimine ja keskendunud töö muudavad labori kummaliselt hüpnotiseerivaks rituaaliks.

Sisekujunduse nõuanded

Arrive at opening to see Sue the T. rex with smaller crowds and better photos.
Wear comfortable shoes and a light layer, the building is large and some halls feel cool.
Start on upper floors or specialty halls like Evolving Planet, leaving Stanley Field Hall for later when crowds peak.
Bring a camera for non-flash photos in Stanley Field Hall and the Grainger Hall of Gems, and check exhibit signs for restrictions.
