this isn't so much a request as in "I want someone to make this" as it is a "hey I'm suprised it doesnt exist yet" type thing
I notice SL has plenty of zoos, aquariums, planetariums, art museums, even a couple of air and space museums
but no Natural History museum
would be awesome to wander around one and check out dinosaur fossil prims, or even mannequins with costumes of different times in history (along with artifact prims)
how cool would that be

Another thing I wish existed in SL is a full build of the British Museum. This is mostly because I'd love the chance to have a look into all those rooms which are closed to the public. |

I think they should have an Unnatural History Museum.

There is a Dinosaurs Park where there are not so much bones as living (or at least scripted ) dinosaurs wandering around. I was a compsognathus there for a time, until I realized beagles get more treats. Worth checking out - the build is a lot of fun with subtle jokes and clever discoveries hidden throughout.

*smug grin*
Jesica, I know just the place for you. http://slurl.com/secondlife/Forum%20Europe/72/77/31 Replica of a famous museum in ..... France? .... somewhere in Europe. Plenty of fossil primmage to be found there, mixed in with photo-sourced texturing from the original location in meatspace. You'll even rez in the yard, right under the jaws of the T.Rex fossil (T.Rez? *grin*) The photosourced halls and foyers can be a little disorienting at first, but after a bit I decided they add quite a lot to the experience. The parcel is even screened with photos of the surrounding city. _____________________

*smug grin* Jesica, I know just the place for you. Trust me, she'll love it. I mean, it has a dinosaur exhibition AND a steam punk exhibition! The only way to top that would be steam punk dinosaurs  |
