Since prehistoric times, humans have sought to find utility in darkness, and have invented ways to acclimate to dark conditions. Visiting In the Dark, guests experience and explore these mysteries via electronic, mechanical and computer interactives, immersive dioramas and lifelike models.
Every museum has objects that are "found in the collections". Many times these found in collections items remain a mystery, but that's where you come in. If you have any information please let our collections staff know: themuseum@nmjc.edu.
