Museum Trip

I attended the Museum of Natural History and i found it very interesting just going into this museum to learn about how living beings used to survive throughout the different times of history. I had visited this museum when i was younger with the rest of my family and i did not comprehend much of the things that were there better than now. The Museum of Natural History educated me on information that i did not know about. I visited many exhibits that demonstrated how the men and women from the past lived. I was really amazed of the different people and how they survived through the times they were living in and the supplies they used to either hunt, eat, and many more. Many had to survive the hardest times throughout history, whether it was animals or humans. There are exihibits that demonstrate us of the Ice Age and how animals survived. There were many animals and reptiles in history that existed then and are no longer in the presence. One of the exhibits that caught my eye was on the similarities we all have with apes. The exhibit was called the Spitzer Hall of Human Origins, there i explored the origins of us human beings and the similar features we have to chimpanzees and apes. In this exhibit they have features such as the revolvement from apes to humans. We are very similar to these mammals, such as the way our bodies are formed and the abilities they can do compared to what we can do. Going into this exhibit really develops the idea of how real this myth is turned out to be a known fact. For everyone to learn out of. As i was in the museum i also learned a lot from out of space, planets. This exihibit was called the Rose Center for Earth and Space, Cullman Hall of the Universe. As i visited this exhibit, i walked around and i saw pictures of the moon. Pictures that i have not seen and it amuses me to know for a fact that we live in a planet and how extreme and big the universe is. I also visited the Gottesman Hall of Planet Earth, here i learned what are some of the features that contain on the planet Earth. Here you learn on how the earth was evolved, how to read rocks, what is causing climate change and what are the reasons that we have oceans, mountains and many of the geographic landscapes in this planet we live in. In this exihibit there are many facts that support Al Gore's "The Incovenient Truth". I loved my visit to the museum because i learned a lot. I saw things that i never seen before and i was educated in many ways. All of the displays on the museum contained valid information that we all are going to need to know whether it is now or in the future. We expand our education level to reach for more further information and facts that are valuable to each and every one of us.
