The Museum of Science

The Museum of Science is one of those iconic museums in Boston that every elementary , middle and high school student has an oppotrunity to go to.  I thought once I graduated I would never be able to have another field trip with my school because A) I am not a science major and B) who has field trips in college anyways?  But I was wrong.

Last Tuesday, I went back to the Museum of Science for a field trip in a science class that I never thought I was going to have to take in college.  The museum was very interesting, more so now than in my younger years.  I was more interested in the sustainability wing,  the dinosaur wing, where they had an actual dinosaur!  This dinosaur was on loan to the museum by a private owner who bought the dinosaur at auction and 75% of the bones are from the same single dinosaur.  I also saw a beautiful skyline of Boston while in the human wing, where human skeletons were on display.

At the sustainability wing, there was a map of Massachusetts which showed where wind speed and power were the highest and lowest in the state.  Most of Massachusetts I found out has a low capability of producing wind speed.
