Your Incredible body
Have you ever wondered just what happens when you sneeze? Or cough? Or sweat? Well, now you can uncover the mystery at the Museum of Nature & Science’s permanent hands-on exhibit, Your Incredible Body! Calculate how much your skin weighs. Watch what happens when you sneeze. And explore the microscopic world of germs. Through 24 interactive stations, you’ll journey through the body’s maze of complex systems — each designed to keep you in balance.
Your Incredible Body uses multimedia and dynamic learning tools to help both kids and adults develop a deeper appreciation of how their bodies work. From exploring the immune and digestive systems to learning about the skin and DNA, this 2,000-square-foot exhibit is packed with fun for everyone!
