The Ice Cold exhibit was very unique and I loved seeing it. I would have liked to see a nicer matte background behind the jewels, since the plastic looked kind of cheap and scratched/streaky.

Fossil Halls and Geological Marvels

Explore the Museum’s famous fossil halls, home to the world's largest collection of dinosaur fossils. Stand before the impressive mounts of Tyrannosaurus rex and Apatosaurus, and marvel at the 122-foot-long cast of a titanosaur, a giant herbivore that lived in Patagonia around 100 million years ago. These exhibits provide a glimpse into the lives and environments of these ancient creatures. In the Mignone Halls of Gems and Minerals, discover more than 5,000 minerals, including giant amethyst geodes and fluorescent minerals. This dazzling display offers a look into the Earth's geological treasures and the processes that shape our planet.

Marine Ecosystems and Evolutionary Tales

The highlight is the iconic 94-foot-long, 21,000-pound model of a blue whale suspended from the ceiling. This hall showcases the diversity of ocean life, from tiny plankton to massive marine mammals. Check out the habitat dioramas in the Hall of North American Mammals, Hall of African Mammals, and other galleries, depicting specific locations worldwide with stunning realism. Learn about human evolution in the Hall of Human Origins, where fossils and artifacts trace our journey from early ancestors to modern humans.
