When science museums are shut down, science museum opens in new location
Posted On October 20, 2021
A science museum in Southern California has opened its doors to the public in a move that was hailed as a triumph for science and the scientific community.
The Sarasota Science Museum is located on the south side of the city.
The new space has the feel of a museum with its own museum exhibit, as well as a collection of more than 500 scientific objects.
The museum has been open since October and has hosted more than 50 exhibits since it opened its door in October.
But the museum was forced to shut down last month, after an unknown fire caused an electrical fire that forced the museum’s closure.
The Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History was also forced to close its doors in April.
