Explore the museum, including the Gold exhibition. In this dazzling exhibition you can walk into an entire room covered in just three ounces of gold, see recovered sunken treasure, and climb onto a scale that tells you your weight in gold. Trace the history, properties, and origins of this highly coveted substance and see why civilizations since the dawn of time have sought this precious metal, one that still hasn't lost its luster.

See the IMAX film Alps OR Living Sea. Alps is a stirring human story that unfolds amid some of nature’s most awe-inspiring scenery. “Against a backdrop of overwhelming natural beauty, The Alps is a true-life story of extraordinary courage,” says director Stephen Judson. “It’s the intensely personal journey of a man who has every reason not to climb the deadly Eiger North Face—yet climb it he must.” Living Sea lets you plunge into the deep blue sea to an underwater realm of mystery and magic. Shot in exotic locations around the globe, this Academy Award-nominated film explores the beauty, diversity, and importance of oceans to all life on Earth.
