Museum staff were back in action today installing "The Science of Flight" exhibit, which is scheduled to debut on Saturday, January 22 during "The Science of Flight" Exhibit Opening Celebration!

Today was � day, with numerous duck specimens installed on the exhibit walls!

"The Science of Flight" is an original, multilingual, special exhibit providing visitors an in-depth look into the many different methods animals take to the air and how studying the animal kingdom provided the basis for humans' ability to take flight. Featuring a multitude of scientific specimens from the museum's collections of birds, mammals, insects and fossils, the exhibit explores a variety of topics ranging from the aerodynamics of flight to the unique wing mechanics of different animal species, both living and extinct.
