  • Contents of collaboration project
  • ① Mini exhibition
    We will hold a mini exhibition that scientifically explains the world of the animation "Dr. STONE" (1st and 2nd term).
    The "Science Craft *" by Senku Ishigami, the main character, and his colleagues in the Kingdom of Science will be explained in an easy-to-understand manner through the specimens and materials of the history of nature and science and technology held by the museum.
    * Senku's production of various things based on his own scientific knowledge in order to regain civilization is called "craft" in the work.

    Venue: Earth Pavilion 1F Open Space



    <Introduction of exhibition (part)>
    ▼ At the beginning of the animation, we will scientifically explain the process of "fossilization" in relation to the scene where all human beings are exposed to a mysterious ray and "petrify". At the same time, fossils (replicas) of the founder birds will be exhibited.
