Laser pointing truth

Creation Museum guests are getting their first looks at a newly enhanced exhibit in the hallway leading to the Special Effects Theater. Last year, the “Man vs. Ape” exhibit, featuring a human skeleton holding a Bible made its appearance near the museum’s Main Hall.

The exhibit presents the science of homology, which refers to features that are similar among different animals-especially bones or DNA. For example, you may have heard that chimp and human DNA are 95-99% similar, or that our skeletons closely resemble chimp skeletons.

The enhancement, which features a video of staff biologist Dr. David Menton above the exhibit, is a laser beam that highlights different aspects of the exhibit as he explains similarities between the skeletons in the display.

Here’s a video clip of the exhibit.

We hope you’ll be able to check out this and other new exhibits at the Creation Museum soon!
