Texas Science & Natural History Museum on the UT campus reopened just over a year ago. The museum welcomed a record number of visitors in that year, including: • 75,000 museum-goers, hailing from all 50 states and 28 countries • 9,000 additional attendees at private events • 300 school and community groups on tours The museum’s newest temporary exhibit features a scale model replica, donated by @SimonsFoundation, that highlights the McDonald Observatory’s 80-ton Hobby-Eberly Telescope, the largest optical telescope in North America. Another recent exhibit is “Particles of Color,” which explores the science of sustainable fashion and was recently featured by @AllisonMillerTV on @CBSAustin. Learn more about the museum, its exhibits and future public events — such as the upcoming fossil identification event on National Fossil Day, October 16th, and a special outdoor screening of “Jurassic Park” on October 5th — using the link in the @TexasScience bio. #NaturalHistoryMuseum ...
