Kicking Back the Pebbles

A big girl's notes on home - cuisine - travel - life

The Boston Museum of Science

October 8, 2014 - Leave a Comment

This summer, in 10 posts: post 8 {Boston}

Το Μουσείο Επιστημών ( MoS ) της Βοστώνης διαθέτει πάνω από 700 διαδραστικά εκθέματα ενώ στους χώρους του λαμβάνουν χώρα καθημερινά πολλές ζωντανές παρουσιάσεις,  καθώς και παραστάσεις στο Πλανητάριο Charles Hayden αλλά και παραστάσεις στο Mugar Omni Theater, την αίθουσα προβολής με τη μοναδική θολωτή IMAX οθόνη στη Νέα Αγγλία (αίθουσες που ανήκουν στο σύμπλεγμα του μουσείου). Οι εγκαταστάσεις του βρίσκονται στο δυτικό άκρο της Βοστώνης παράλληλα στην ακτογραμμή του ποταμού Charles. Διαθέτει τρείς πτέρυγες (την Μπλε, την Πράσινη και την Κόκκινη) με πολυάριθμες εκθέσεις. Μερικές από τις πιο διάσημες (από το παρελθόν μέχρι σήμερα) είναι οι εξής: 

  • Στη δεκαετία του 1950,  στην κύρια είσοδο στήθηκε ένας θάλαμος νεφώσεως Wilson. Οι επισκέπτες μπορούσαν να παρακολουθήσουν από απόσταση αναπνοής την τροχιά υποατομικών σωματιδίων υψηλής ταχύτητας!
  • Ο πρώτος φακός Fresnel που είχε χρησιμοποιηθεί στο φάρο Navesink στις ΗΠΑ, εκτίθετο από τις αρχές του 1950 μέχρι το 1979.
  • Το 1988, το Μουσείο παρουσίασε έκθεση με θέμα τη ζωή του Ραμσή ΙΙ . Η έκθεση φιλοξενούσε πάνω από 70 αρχαία αντικείμενα, δανεισμένα από το Αιγυπτιακό Μουσείο στο Κάιρο. Το κεντρικό έκθεμα ήταν το ύψους 40 μέτρων μοντέλο του αιγυπτιακού ναού, που στέγαζε το εντυπωσιακό, ηλικίας 3.000 ετών & βάρους 57 τόνων, γρανιτένιο άγαλμα του Ραμσή! Η έκθεση διήρκεσε από τις 7 Μαϊου μέχρι τις 30 Αυγούστου του 1988.
  • Από τον Αύγουστο έως τον Οκτώβριο του 2004, ήταν το πρώτο μουσείο στις ΗΠΑ που παρουσίασε την έκθεση The Lord of the Rings/the Motion Picture Trilogy, έργο του μουσείου Te Papa Tongarewa της Νέας Ζηλανδίας, με πολλά από τα κοστούμια και τα αντικείμενα από τα σκηνικά των ταινιών.
  • Το Μουσείο σχεδίασε και έστησε την πρώτη δική του, βασισμένη σε ταινία, έκθεση με τίτλο Star Wars: Όταν η επιστήμη συναντά τη φαντασία. Η έκθεση έλαβε μέρος από τον Οκτώβριο του 2005 μέχρι τον Απρίλιο του 2006, ενώ στη συνέχεια ταξίδεψε σε άλλα μουσεία.
  • Η έκθεση Body Worlds με τα πλαστινοποιημένα σώματα του Γκύντερ φον Χάγκενς, που διχάζει εδώ και χρόνια κοινό και κριτικούς, φιλοξενήθηκε στο Μουσείο από τις 29 Ιουλίου του 2006 έως τις 7 Ιανουαρίου, 2007. (Body Worlds 2)
  • Από τις 25 Οκτωβρίου 2009 έως 21 Φεβρουαρίου 2010, το Μουσείο στέγασε τον αγαπημένο μας Χάρι Πότερ! (Harry Potter/The Exhibition)

I almost regretted not having a kiddo around for this one, I would have loved to watch the reactions! Yeap, your eyes don’t fool you… There was an entire exhibition dedicated to bodily functions and the display below is but a small example of said exhibition.

The Boston Museum of Science | Kicking Back the Pebbles
GROSSOLOGY: The (Impolite) Science of the Human Body is an interactive science-in-disguise exhibition that promotes learning while having fun. Based on the best-selling book series Grossology, the exhibit’s humorous approach harnesses kids’ natural curiosity to teach the science behind the human organism. May 25, 2014 – December 10, 2014

 

So on we went, from the wonders of the human organism to the wonders of mother nature…

On to a hall with a spectacular view of Boston…

On to a room full of art dedicated to water! (one could hear actual water sounds, sit down, relax, and watch the paintings)…

The Boston Museum of Science | Kicking Back the Pebbles
Water Stories: Conversations in Paint and Sound. Through paint and sound, artist Anne Neely, in collaboration with sound artist Halsey Burgund, focuses our attention on alarming stories unfolding today. Neely invites inquiry into water’s unifying role in our world and the many ways humans affect it.

 

On to delving into the magnificence of  domestic problems: a surprisingly appealing (to me!) model —the common house fly! Who would have thought that of all the exhibits I would impulsively need to “click” my camera for this…

If you are a parent, grandparent or cool aunt/uncle the Museum of Science is bound to keep your little ones busy for hours per visit (while you’ll probably find yourselves visiting more than once… or twice… or 3+ times!). Some of the other permanent exhibitions are:

  • A Bird’s World: A virtual tour of Acadia National Park, which includes a specimen of every bird found in New England.
  • Bradford Washburn, The Man Behind the Lens: The story of Bradford Washburn, renowned mountaineer and Museum of Science founder.
  • The Butterfly Garden
  • Catching the Wind: How turbines transform wind into green energy, and the Museum’s Wind Lab energy production.
  • Conserve @ Home:  The real energy sappers and savers in the home and ways that we can make a difference.
  • Dinosaurs: Modeling the Mesozoic
  • The Discovery Center: Children can put an animal skeleton together, touch a real fossil, or observe a variety of live animals up close.
  • Energized!: Sunlight, wind, moving water and other self-replenishing sources that generate energy with fewer negative side effects.
  • Investigate!: Children practice thinking like a scientist by investigating different phenomena to try to understand the way the world works.
  • The Live Animal Care Center
  • Microrobotics Takes Flight: New methods for developing tiny, flying microrobots called RoboBees.
  • Natural Mysteries: A reference library of interesting objects & enticingly mysterious environments.
  • New England Habitats
  • The Light House: The science behind light and color.
  • The Rock Garden: Featuring petrified wood from Arizona, Egyptian granite,  Roxbury puddingstone and more.
  • Weems Animal Sculptures: 30 of Katharine Lane Weems‘s bronze sculptures of animals are displayed in this exhibit, the largest Weems collection in the world!

    That fly is amazingly huge. I hope it didn’t exist in the real world, that would make him bigger than me 😀 Pawkisses 🙂

In an 1875 St. Nicholas Magazine* cumulative tale, In an 1875 St. Nicholas Magazine* cumulative tale, an old woman bakes a gingerbread man, who leaps from her oven and runs away. The woman and her husband give chase but are unable to catch him. The gingerbread man then outruns several farm characters in repetitious scenes featuring an ever-growing cast for the tale's effect. Each time he escapes, he chants a list of those he has steered clear of and bets he can avoid the next character too: “I've run away from a little old man, a little old man and the old lady, and I can run away from you—I can!”
•
It all ends with a fox catching and eating the gingerbread man, who cries as he is devoured: “I'm quarter gone! I'm half gone! I'm three-quarters gone! I'm all gone!” 🦊🍪 #homemade #gingerbreadspice #gingerbreadman #gingerbreadhouse #gingerbreadcookies #gingerbreadlady
