NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM

Finding Longitude.

 

As overseas trade expanded in eighteenth-century Britain; a solution to the deficiencies in Navigation was required to avoid shipwrecks and save lives.

Our presentation will examine the progress made in the late eighteenth and nineteenth century in this regard and some unforseen consequences of finding the solution .

Presented by Andy Henebury a volunteer at the Museum.

News for young visitors.

When you look around the museum there are lots of animals on display, of course none of them are real and can't hurt anyone. Here are some pictures of the animals you might see around the displays, the chook and the lady bird are easy to find so is the cat, and the crab.

Please ask the receptionist for a list, so you can tick off each one as you find them.

We really want to know where "Pedro the naughty possum" is because he keeps moving around when there is nobody to see him.
