Highlights from The Museum of Science and Industry Chicago
The Museum of Science and Industry Chicago is the other happiest place on earth.
The ones I remember from when I was a kid in the 1960's: The Burlington Zephyr (now displayed inside), the baby chick incubator, and, of course, those legendary model trains, including Loop elevated cars, modern container trains, a Metra commuter train and Amtrak's Empire Builder passenger train (William keeps them all running on time these days).
Plus, a new exhibit: a whirling man-made tornado that visitors can stand inside as a group to show that, although a tornado is less likely to strike downtown Chicago because of all the tall buildings, it's still possible.

The Museum of Science and Industry is located in Chicago, Illinois, in Jackson Park, in the Hyde Park neighborhood between Lake Michigan and The University of Chicago. It is housed in the former Palace of Fine Arts from the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition. Initially endowed by Julius Rosenwald, the Sears, Roebuck and Company president and philanthropist, it was supported by the Commercial Club of Chicago and opened in 1933 during the Century of Progress Exposition.
Among the museum's exhibits are a full-size replica coal mine, German submarine U-505 captured during World War II, a 3,500-square-foot (330 m2) model railroad, the command module of Apollo 8, and the first diesel-powered streamlined stainless-steel passenger train (Pioneer Zephyr). David R. Mosena has been president and CEO of the museum since 1998.
The museum has over 2,000 exhibits, displayed in 75 major halls. The museum has several major permanent exhibits. Access to several of the exhibits (including the Coal Mine and U-505) requires the payment of an additional fee. The Transportation Zone contains several permanent exhibits. The Great Train Story is a 3,500-square-foot (330 m2) model railroad and recounts the story of transportation from Chicago to Seattle.
In March 2010, the museum opened Science Storms in the Allstate Court, as a permanent exhibit. This multilevel exhibit features a 40-foot (12 m) water vapor tornado, tsunami tank, Tesla coil, heliostat system, and a Wimshurst machine built by James Wimshurst in the late 19th century. Also housed are Newton's Cradle, the color spectrum, and Foucault pendulum. All artifacts allow guests to explore the physics and chemistry of the natural world.
German submarine U-505 is one of just two German submarines captured during World War II, and, since its arrival in 1954, the only one on display in the Western Hemisphere, as well as the only one in the United States. The U-boat was newly restored beginning in 2004 after 50 years of being displayed outdoors, and was then moved indoors as The New U-505 Experience on June 5, 2005. Displayed in a underground shed, it remains as a popular exhibit for visitors, as well as a memorial to all the casualties of the Battle of the Atlantic during World War II.
The first diesel-powered streamlined stainless-steel train, the Pioneer Zephyr, is on permanent display in the Great Hall, renamed the Entry Hall in 2008. The train was once displayed outdoors, and restored and placed in the former Great Hall during the construction of the museum's underground parking lot. Today, a complimentary tour goes through it every 10–20 minutes.

Whispering Gallery - Museum of Science & Industry, Chicago
The reason you can hear the other person talking - whispering - from so far away is that the sound waves are bouncing off the walls of a room with an ellipsoidal shape, which causes them to focus at the... well, at the focus of the ellipse, where the video is made from. The other person is at one focus of the ellipse and the mic in my phone is at the other.

The Great Museums of Chicago

Chicago, once an upstart crossroads, emerged as a world hub by the late 19th century, and it decided to celebrate with The World's Columbian Exposition in 1983. Ostensibly commemorating the 400th anniversary of Christopher Columbus's arrival in the New World, it was really a chance to showcase the advent of urban Exceptionalism. With the flowers of industry and commerce blooming, there came new prosperity, and with that the means and desire to create halls where scientific specimens, works of art, and other objects of value were displayed. This was the wellspring for the Great Museums of Chicago.

German U Boat-505 Exhibit at Museum of Science & Industry, Chicago, IL
On June 4, 1944, a German submarine known as U-505 was prowling off the coast of West Africa on a hunt for American and Allied ships, when depth charges from the USS Chatelain blasted the dreaded U-boat out of hiding. On June 25, 2011, we visitied the amazing U-505 exhibit at the Chicago Museum of Science and Industry with my daughter & family, including 3 young children. It was a fabulous and touching experience. I hope if you are in the Chicago area you will take the time to visit this incredible and inspiring exhibit. From msichicago.org/whats-here/exhibits/u-505/ The U-505 Submarine On June 4, 1944, a German submarine known as U-505 was prowling off the coast of West Africa on a hunt for American and Allied ships, when depth charges from the USS Chatelain blasted the dreaded U-boat out of hiding. It was the end of a violent run for U-505, which had terrorized the Atlantic Ocean as part of a massive U-boat campaign that almost altered the outcome of World War II. The Museum of Science and Industry invites you to step inside the real U-505—the only German submarine in the United States, and, now, a national memorial to the 55,000 American sailors who gave their lives on the high seas in WWI and WWII.
