Earth Week
Celebrate Earth Week at the Museum with ecology-themed programs — including Live Animal shows — that address the surprising new secrets about our dynamic planet and its interconnected systems.
On Earth Day (Friday, April 22), the Gordon Current Science & Technology Center hosts special presentations by guest researchers in a variety of Earth and environmental sciences. Enjoy conversations and activities with scientists and see how they use tools like satellites and deep-ocean probes to reconstruct our planet's past, pinpoint its present status, and predict its future trends.
