A 1776 print of the Declaration, George III's microscope, and the science behind a new nation.
HistoryScience & natureFree
At Science Museum.
The Science Museum's 250th-anniversary exhibition on the four decades from the 1760s to the first presidency, and the science running underneath them: the maps that drew new borders, the fossils dug up, the plantations laid out, the surveying compasses, alongside the knowledge of enslaved and free African-descended people and Indigenous practices that predated the nation. A rare surviving 1776 printing of the Declaration of Independence, a microscope made for George III, Benjamin Franklin's first chart of the Gulf Stream and a dugout canoe commissioned for the show.
Free, but ticketed. Recommended for eleven and up.
