Watch ripples spread and collide, strike a tuning fork, and find patterns in a kaleidoscope of colors to see yourself in science! From a pendulum's swing to the pulse of a giant slinky, explore how waves are everywhere and how understanding them has transformed biology, earth science, astronomy, and even artificial intelligence.

Hands-on, playful, and endlessly surprising, this exhibit makes the invisible forces shaping our world impossible to ignore.

Part of the Museum’s Year of Revolutionary Science, a year-long exploration of the ideas and discoveries that changed how we understand the world and continue to shape what comes next.
