The Science Museum opens 'Atmosphere' a new permanent climate science gallery.
This December The Science Museum in South Kensington opens an exciting new permanent climate science gallery. The gallery entitled 'Atmosphere: Exploring Climate Change' offers visitors the opportunity to broaden their understanding of climate science, a very current issue.
It includes an immersive and interactive gallery world with its own atmosphere and landscapes which respond to the visitors in the way the earth's system would. It also offers, five story zones which explain in a hands on fashion the effect of greenhouse gases on the world's energy and our role in effecting the carbon cycle. As well as offering historical perspectives on climate change including the work of John Tyndall. Not to mention Scientific samples including a 700 year old piece of Antarctic ice, the first and only one in the UK.
The Science Museum is long established as a source of knowledge for people of all levels of understanding and this opening comes at an important time in global scientific development, and this new room will serve as an informative platform for people interested in finding out more about the current state of climate science.
