Hulking in our Morian Hall of Paleontology, Wyrex is one of the most unique Tyrannosaurs Rexes ever unearthed. His feet are more complete than any other specimen to date. He has the remnant of a third finger digit, something that's only been found once before. We even have pieces of his skin! But it's his tail — or rather, what's missing from it — that holds the greatest mystery.

Before Apollo 11 landed on the moon and changed the course of history, the U.S. and Soviet Union battled for control of space in a Cold War clash that rocked the globe. A remnant of this struggle, Mercury-Atlas capsule #6, on permeant display in our Hall of Astronomy, still captures the gravity of that race to the stars in every scratch and dent scattered across its hull. What exactly did it take to send America’s first astronauts into orbit? A barrel-worth of flying monkeys, a few melting missiles, and all the brainpower of an oft-forgotten engineer in Houston.
