A
So
I'll
see
you
at
the
top,
the
globe's
gallery,
so
we're
starting
in
a
victorian
parlor,
because
a
lot
of
the
scientific
instruments
we
have
are
from
the
victorian
times
and
people
are
very
interested
in
collecting
all
sorts
of
things.
So
we've
got
all
kinds
of
interesting
things
in
here,
but
we
move
on
to
the
globes.
A
This
is
an
extra
version
of
the
globe
that
we
looked
at
and
it's
the
one
with
all
the
animals
in
designed
for
children
and
we've
also
got
some
very
interesting
other
globes
in
the
case
with
it.
So
this
one
is
a
toy
and
it
was
made
in
around
1960
to
celebrate
sputnik
going
around
the
earth,
so
you've
got
your
toy
and
you
can
wind
it
and
you
can
watch
the
satellite
and
the
alien
spaceship,
which
is
not
quite
as
scientific
as
the
satellite
going
around
the
globe.
A
We've
also
got
some
very
interesting
globes
to
make
yourself,
so
these
were
designed
by
a
lady
called
mrs
johnston,
and
the
idea
was
that
you
could
learn
about
the
world
while
you
built
your
globe.
Second
case
of
globes
is
interesting
because
they're
not
globes
of
the
earth,
so
most
of
the
globes
that
we
see
now
are
to
help
us
find
out
where
different
countries
are
on
the
earth.
But
of
course
you
can
also
survey
other
planets
and
find
out
what's
on
them.
A
A
It
contains
luna
globes,
which
are
globes
of
the
moon
and,
of
course,
for
a
long
time.
We
didn't
know
what
all
of
the
moon
looked
like.
So
some
of
them
a
bit
like
this
one
have
gaps
in
them.
So
this
is
from
one
of
the
first
flights
past
the
moon,
so
luna
3.
So
this
is
one
of
the
first
moon
maps
that
had
more
than
half
of
it,
but
you
can
still
see
there's
a
gap
where
they
didn't
quite
get
around
the
back
to
find
all
of
the
things
then.
A
Finally,
these
are
some
of
our
most
complicated
globes.
So
you
can
see
that
this
one
has
a
map
of
the
world
in
the
middle,
but
round
the
outside.
You
have
the
stars,
and
so
you
can
work
out
where
you
are
on
the
earth
and
what
time
of
year
it
is
and
work
out
which
stars
you'll
be
able
to
see
from
where
you
are
so
there's
all
sorts
of
different
globes
that
you
can
use
for
different
things.
A
So
we've
come
in
through
the
back
door
today,
but,
generally
speaking,
you
would
come
through
the
door
at
the
front,
so
I'm
going
to
head
over
there
and
tell
you
about
some
of
the
amazing
things
in
this
amazing
room
door
that
we
generally
come
in
by
and
the
welcome
to
the
whipple
museum
and
a
little
bit
about
mr
whipple.
So
this
is
the
man
who
started
the
museum
75
years
ago.
Well,
76
now
1944.!
A
So
in
this
room
we
have
some
of
our
biggest
items,
so
you
can
see
a
telescope
here
a
bit
like
the
ones
we
were
looking
at
in
our
second
week
and
behind
that
we've
got
the
grand
oray
and
this
is
a
machine
for
showing
how
the
solar
system
works.
So
I
know
someone
was
very
interested
in
the
solar
system.
A
So
I
did
say
that
it
was
a
very
big
telescope
when
we
thought
about
it
and
you
can
see
that
it
is,
and
he
was
the
man
who
discovered
uranus-
and
this
is
his
telescope
telescopes.
When
we're
thinking
about
looking
at
things,
we
have
lots
and
lots
of
microscopes
and
we
also
have
one
of
my
favorite
things
in
the
collection.
This
is
a
collection
of
microscope
slide
making
equipment.
A
So
if
you
want
to
look
through
a
microscope,
you've
got
to
have
a
prepared
slide
that
you
can
look
at
and
that's
a
really
important
job,
and
these
belong
to
a
man
called
charles
elcock,
who
was
irish
and
he
lived
between
18.
So
he
did
his
microscopy
between
1872
and
1910,
and
these
are
his
microscope
slides
and
they
are
really
amazing.
So
he
was
an
expert
in
something
called
foraminifera
and
you
can
see
how
small
they
are
and
he
prepared
those
beautifully
and
helped
other
people
to
understand
them.
A
So
this
is
one
of
my
favorite
things
in
the
museum,
partly
because
it's
all
so
beautiful,
it's
all
really
nice
to
look
at,
but
some
of
it
is
also
quite
practical.
So
these
are
all
the
little
labels
and
things
like
that
that
he
would
be
using
good
week.
We
talked
about
calculating
in
computers
and
napier's
bones.
So
here
is
a
set
of
napier's
bones.
These
ones,
unfortunately,
are
on
bone,
so
they're
on
ivory.
One
of
the
interesting
things
about
doing
the
history
of
science
is
that
sometimes
people
do
things
that
you
probably
wouldn't
do
now.
A
This
one
was
made
by
his
son,
and
this
is
a
small
part
of
it,
so
the
computers
we
have
now
are
much
smaller
than
anyone
was
ever
expecting
them
to
be
coming
out
of
the
main
gallery
now
and
again,
into
the
75th
anniversary
collection.
So
this
is
things
that
were
collected
by
robert
whipple,
so
he
had
lots
and
lots
of
pieces
of
paper
and
also
lots
of
different
calculating
machines,
and
things
like
that,
so
we've
got
some
beautiful
ring
dials.
A
So
this
is
a
much
bigger
ring
dial
than
one
we
looked
at,
and
we've
also
got
compasses
and
really
beautiful
things
that
worked
to
help
people
find
their
way
around,
and
we
have
more
unusual
things
like
this
walking
stick
and
umbrella
which
had
things
hidden
in
them.
So
remember
we
talked
about
hiding
your
scientific
instruments
or
and
having
them
with
you
all
the
time.
A
So
you
can
put
a
thermometer
and
a
compass
and
all
sorts
of
things
into
those,
and
we
have
this
globe
which
opens
like
an
umbrella
and
then
closes
again
because,
as
you
saw
upstairs,
the
globes
take
a
lot
of
space.
So
if
you
can
find
one
that
will
store
up
in
a
smaller
space,
then
that's
really
good.
A
But
I've
come
in
here
to
look
at
the
drawers
and
this
collection
because
we
looked
at
one
calculator,
but
we
do
have
a
lot
of
calculators,
so
there
are
various
calculating
machines
and
then
in
the
drawers
there
are
even
more
so
we
have
a
really
good
collection
of
ways
of
calculating
people.
There's
another
set
of
napiest
bones.
A
A
So
in
the
fourth
week
we
talked
about
the
universal
dial,
and
here
we
have
lots
of
those
because
of
course
everyone
would
have
needed
one,
so
very
small
one.
So
you
can
see
the
sundial
there.
This
is
another
one
like
the
one
we
looked
at,
that
you
can
incline
up
and
down
depending
on
where
you
are
in
the
world
and
that's
a
posh,
a
shinier
version
of
that.
A
We
also
have
things
called
nocturnals,
which
you
would
use
at
night
as
the
name
suggests,
and
they
would
be,
you
would
use
them
by
lining
them
up
on
the
great
bear
or
the
little
bear
constellations.
So
you
might
know
how
to
find
the
great
bear
or
the
big
dipper,
and
that
would
help
you
to
find
out
where
you
were
going
at
night.
If
you
were
on
a
ship
and
trying
to
find
your
way
and
the
picture
at
the
back,
there
is
of
what
the
museum
used
to
look
like.
