Description:

A wonder for all ages, the fascinating San Diego Natural History Museum offers exhibits about the area's rich natural history and ancient artifacts. Explore 5 floors of captivating collections, and visit the state-of-the-art 3-D theater.

Venture into the museum, and wonder what is forcing the giant Foucault pendulum to move in a circle—seemingly by magic. You quickly learn that the only thing spinning is you (and the earth). French physicist Leon Foucault invented the pendulum in 1851 to provide visual proof of the earth's rotation.

Immerse yourself in a 3-D movie experience in the largest museum theater in California. Featured movies on the over-sized screen convince you that you are in another world as they grab your senses and take you on a journey that's both heart-rending and intense.

With no time limit on your ticket, you are free to spend as long as you wish exploreing the array of scientific, cultural, artistic, and historical objects. You can easily lose track of time exploring the multitude of intriguing exhibits.
