Museum Makes Science Fun for Everyone

Do you find schoolwork so stressful that you find yourself wanting to get away during the weekend? Aside from the farmer’s market or the Pyramid Mall, some student visit the Museum of the Earth.

Located on Trumansburg Road in Ithaca, the Museum of the Earth is part of The Paleontological Research Institution, which was founded in 1932 by Gilbert Dennison Harris, a professor of geology at Cornell University from 1894 to 1934. The institution was developed to take care of professor Harris’s collections and now it is a natural history museum with a mission including both scientific research and education. Founded in 2003, the Museum of the Earth, as a new member of PRI, now serves as “the most exciting excursion in education” in PRI for everyone in the community.
