"It has been called a museum of the 21st century, but it's much more than that. Where else can you stand at the edge of a black hole, work hand-in-clamp with a robot, or land on the moon?"

Just be sure to visit the Cohon Family Nature Escape, where you can spy a giant Baltimore oriole nest, a porous concrete wall that provides a canvas for live moss graffiti, and a tree slide carved from the fallen trunk of a 125-year-old Eastern White Pine.
