Scientists and Inventors discovered and created many things
because of their curiosity. Like Galileo Galilee’s Telescope where he used it
to observe planets like Venus and Jupiter, Alexander Graham Bell’s telephone
that is widely used today as one of our tools for communication, or Isaac
Newton’s law of motion. We won’t be able to develop without their breakthrough.
Science is a now necessity in this time of day.
Non-profit project by the Bonifacio Art Foundation, Inc., The
Mind Museum is dedicated to providing an amazing educational experience, to see
science and technology come alive. The museum is the first science museum in
the Philippines with over 250 hands-on, minds-on interactive exhibits at JY
Campos Park in Bonifacio Global City.
The Mind Museum contains 5 galleries:
- Atom
- Life
- Earth
- Universe
- Technology
THE ATOM GALLERY will make you appreciate what the tiniest
particle can do to our surrounding, exhibiting pieces that would let you
understand how counter-intuitive quantum serves as the basis of most of our
technology today. Atom Gallery also has the most interactive exhibits.
THE LIFE GALLERY
features life itself on Earth. This gallery is filled with different kinds of
habitats and an impressive number and variety of organisms that thrive our
planet. This gallery also helps us to understand how life surrounds and
inhabits us – from microbes to large animals like the life-size ‘butanding’ or
whale shark, they have displayed in the gallery.
THE EARTH GALLERY focuses on the forces that shaped and
re-shaped our planet, Earth. It also tells the evolutionary history of life on
our planet. It contains a 3D animated film made by an all-Filipino crew that
features 4.6 billion years of the planet’s natural history and evolution in 12
minutes. Don’t forget the gallery has Stan, its own and first permanent T-Rex
in the country.
THE UNIVERSE GALLERY humankind has long been fascinated about
life outside Earth. Universe gallery features the strange vastness of outer
space and shows the fundamental elements at play in the cosmos. The gallery
also contains a unique planetarium which can make you feel as if you were lying
down on a bed star-gazing.
THE TECHNOLOGY GALLERY is located above all four galleries
and it’s also the largest among all. The gallery is divided into five major
themes with each theme occupying a Node. The themes of the Nodes are: How We
Live, Who We Are, How We Know, How Things Work, and Here to There. This gallery
is also a representation of how humans, with the tools we invent and innovate,
are able to express our ingenuity and how technology helps us to become better
humans.
BTW When you enter the museum you’ll first be greeted by a
robot named Aedi (Idea spelled backward).
Now after you’re done exploring inside, stop by at their
nature exhibition, Science-in-the-Park outside the museum and witness the
magical beauty of nature.
