Tellus Museum Research Paper
The Tellus Museum is a great place to visit, no matter fall, winter, summer, or spring.
First off, something which makes this trip a new and fun experience is the space theater. The space theater is basically like a normal movie theater, but what makes this theater unique from the others is it makes you feel like you're really there, sort of like virtual reality. Secondly, another item that makes this trip enjoyable is the shell finding, where you could uncover unique fossils and stones. I personally thought this was cool since I found many unseen fossils and gems in the game. Thirdly, the most memorable and brilliant place out of the whole museum is the car exhibit. The car exhibit consists of cars from the late '80s to the late '90s, which

    East Indian Sculpture and Baroque sculpture: How are they different and how are they similar? After circling the museum for an hour, bouncing from security guard to security guard (trying to find my way to the baroque sculptures) I was finally able to answer that question. The two examples I chose were "Nessus and Dejanira" from the Baroque period and "Loving Couple" from Eastern India. The reason I chose these two specifically is because they both involved a man and a woman, making it more interesting for comparing and contrasting. I also chose five additional pieces to discuss later in my paper.…

    Going to the RISD art museum happened to be a little more hassle than we expected it to be. I went there first with Tom on Friday the 22nd and we got there 4:45 which happened to be 15 min before closing. So we had to go home and come back on Tuesday the 26th. Once we finally got in it was very nice, we started on floor 3. The part we started on had very modern architecture with cream white plaster walls and cement floors with lighting from above. The lighting lit the pieces very well as it should and sort of acted like the sun. The architecture fit most of the art that was on this floor because it was more recently done and looked very modern. The staff and students had many pieces in this section.…

    You can look through the telescope on the roof and see the rings of Saturn, or the craters of the moon. Also, if the line on the roof is really long, you can see just as good of stuff by looking through the telescopes on the front lawn. (6) BE PATIENT. The Observatory was reopened about 6 months before it was really ready - they wanted to give people the chance to get in to see what's there - but as a result there's no brochures or organized tours yet. Remember, though, the Guides will answer your questions! (7) SEE THE FREE DOCUMENTARY. There's a new theater in the lower levels (The Leonard Nimoy Event Horizon) that has a free documentary film about the Observatory. It's 25 minutes long and it's a great way to get some background information and have a break from walking around. (8) TAKE THE ZOO SHUTTLE. The Zoo shuttle is easy to find, easy to drive to, and free to park…

    The Getty Villa, located in Pacific Palisades, is by far the museum that resonates with me the most. From the artwork to the building itself, I’m in love. I went with a childhood friend of mine because I had an extra ticket and I coerced him to join me. The tickets were free, but the parking was fifteen dollars; a very fair price in my opinion.…

    To my surprise it was a lot bigger than I thought it would be. Being on just one floor of a building I thought it would be a pretty limited museum but it is way bigger than expected. There are four exhibits on display in the museum. One is a permanent display in the museum. There are also a couple of smaller displays in an area in the museum. I couldn’t take any pictures in the museum due to the many signs up saying not to.…

    This exhibit is something I truly loved because when I was a kid I used to collect rocks that were from mining and love to go this exhibit. I would go to the gift shop and get all kinds of souvenirs from my trip. This exhibit has fossil remains, the beauty of rocks and minerals, geology and critters of a limestone cave. It is so beautiful. There are also depictions and carvings of the layers along steep banks of the James River, and gems in an underground mine. If your child is a rock lover, it is definitely the place to take them…

    The early humans exhibit was interesting solely because it explained the origin of my culture. It touched upon the first forms of art made with rocks and stones. It also displayed the tools used for hunting, gathering, cultivation, and herding but despite these positive aspects I found it quite boring. The room itself made me sleepy because of the color and as I was taking notes I could not help but want to leave.…

    I know that you are thinking, "Museum of Sex?! What was this person thinking?!" But I've been to most of the museums in the city - at least twice. I thought something new and refreshing would be good for me. Well, to tell you the truth, I've always wanted to go to the Museum of Sex. The curiosity of what it might contain, and the excitement of finally being old enough to go to this museum was so great, that my shameful embarrassment of even thinking of going to this museum was suppressed to the minimal. Also, the opportunity was there! Two of my guy friends were planning on going to the Museum of Sex that weekend and I thought to myself, ‘why not?' And that's…

    I really loved this part of the trip, because I got to see aircrafts and space shuttles up close. I have always been interested in how things work; so getting to take a closer look at them was really cool. I saw apollo 13, toured the inside of a space shuttle, and learned about astronaut food. I even tried dehydrated ice cream! The National Air and Space Museum houses hundreds of planes, space ships, and other exhibits. Unfortunately, I did not get to see everything, but that’s okay because one day I will hopefully go back and see the rest. However, I did get to see some of the earliest aircrafts ever built. I saw the wright brothers 1903 airplane, and the 1900 glider. These were especially cool because they were made completely of wood and canvas. After the crash of the 1900 glider, the wright brothers studied the way birds wings work in order to make the 1903 version succesful. Even before the trip, I knew I wanted to buy some sort of souvenir. In the gift shop of the museum, I found the perfect souvenir, an Albert Einstein bobblehead. He even speaks; “Pi equals…
