There’s more to
the Museum than what you see in our halls. The sampling of videos
below will have you chasing comets in outer space, slipping
beneath the ocean waves, and marveling at signature specimens in
our newly reopened Mignone Halls of Gems and Minerals. You
can find all these and more on our video page
and on YouTube.

along for the ride with the Rosetta mission, which is
featured in the Hayden Planetarium Space Show Worlds
Beyond Earth, in this 360º video.

Behind the Scenes for the Making of the Andros Coral Reef
Diorama
Dive into the history of one of the most
iconic dioramas at the Museum with artist Stephen Quinn
and travel back in time to the 1920s, when Museum expeditions
to the Bahamas allowed curators and artists to transplant

effort, bring it to life for generations of Museum
visitors.
