Dinosaurs of Antarctica takes you back in time to a land we wouldn’t recognize today. A land where massive beasts thundered through the forests; where colossal amphibians lurked about thick swamps; where sleek predators prowled the shallow tropical seas; where lush ferns and verdant woodland covered the plains. This is prehistoric Antarctica 200 million years ago – a warm, 绿色景观充满了活动,因为它位于更北的超大陆冈瓦纳的一部分(以及南美洲的部分或全部), 非洲, 澳大利亚, the Indian subcontinent and Arabia).

“It’s rare that an exhibition and OMNIMAX® film pair together so perfectly, creating experiences that build on and enrich each other,” said Dave Duszynski, vice president of featured experiences at Cincinnati Museum Center. ”在一起, 他们有能力让你沉浸在史前的南极环境中,并以令人眼花缭乱的细节将其带入生活.”

The fierce predator’s skeleton is also on display in the exhibition. 一个rhino-sized Glacialisaurus,可能是 Cryolophosaurus它站在另外两种尚未被正式科学描述的物种附近. 这些恐龙是巨大的长颈四足食草动物的早期近亲 腕龙 but are smaller. A juvenile specimen is just about the size of a Labrador Retriever, plenty small enough to be devoured by the 19- to 39-foot Taniwhasaurus prowling the oceans.

The exhibition isn’t just about 什么 scientists have found in Antarctica, but 如何. Artifacts from historical and modern expeditions, 包括传奇南极探险家罗伯特·法尔肯·斯科特1910年乘坐的雪橇 “特拉诺瓦” 以及菲尔德博物馆的科学家们今天在探索这块大陆时所穿的厚厚的红色派克大衣, 包括. Pickaxes used by early explorers, 以及帮助现代古生物学家更容易挖掘史前岩石的手提钻, s如何 some of the tools needed for a polar expedition. 虽然南极探险的许多技术已经得到了改进(直升机胜过狗), 例如), researchers still sleep in tents similar to those used by Scott on his early 20th century expeditions.

引人入胜的互动有助于解释古代和现代南极洲矛盾背后的科学概念. A puzzle explains plate tectonics, 展示大陆是如何结合在一起的,帮助你想象冈瓦纳超大陆和南极洲向南漂移的过程. 互动式解释极地光和午夜太阳说明了20所面临的挑战th-和21st-century polar explorers. +, you can touch a piece of stone containing real fossils from Antarctica.

Dinosaurs of Antarctica pulls back the curtain on the process of scientific exploration,” adds Duszynksi. “The dinosaurs themselves garner a lot of attention, 但在这次展览和电影中,即使是现代南极探险的大胆和困难也会吸引你.”
