Charles Darwin's voyage aboard HMS Beagle was one of the most significant journeys undertaken in recent times. It was via the Beaagle that Darwin was able to visit the Galapagos Islands and from there begin to form the basis of what became his theory of evolution.

2009 represents 200 years since Darwin's birth, and that - combined with the Richard Dawkins-backed atheist bus advertising - means that there has never been a better time to reacquaint yourself with Darwin's life and works.

Fortunately the Natural History Museum is giving you the opportunity to do exactly that, with major new exhibition that looks at his Darwin's life and works and the continued impact of his theories today.

Until 19.04.09.
