3D Map - Museum of Nature and Science (Las Cruces,NM)
[Filmed on May 4, 2013 in 1080p60. Direct-upload; not edited.]
This is a brand new 3D map model of Southern NM in the new Science museum in Downtown Las Cruces. The map features lights that show the different places in the area. There was not too much else to film in the museum. There was no elevator and the museum was not that interesting; there was a lot of wasted empty space. This museum opened November 2012.

This is a view of the atrium in the new science museum downtown. Unfortunately, there is no public elevator. If there is an elevator at all, it is behind locked doors in the storage area. Other than having no elevator which is very unfortunate, the building is pretty nice.
Las Cruces,New Mexico Museum Of Natural History
The Las Cruces ,New Mexico Museum Of Natural History is inside the Mesilla Valley Mall.Filmed some of the live animals that they have. There were few people that wished not to be on video. That is why parts of video you will see camera down and could not also film some parts of the museum because of that as well.

New Museum Opens in Downtown Las Cruces
11.07.12 (LAS CRUCES) Workers were wrapping up the finishing touches on the Museum of Nature and Science a day before it opened to the public in downtown Las Cruces Friday.
Richard Quick, the museum's naturalist, was working to place a panel inside a turtle cage.
You have to be real careful with this tape because it sticks once and it's stuck, said Quick.
Richard said New Mexico is no stranger to turtles.
New Mexico has ten species of turtles. The majority of those are aquatic and the Western box turtle is the only box turtle that we have.
The museum showcases one of Las Cruces' most famous residents, Clyde Tombaugh, who first discovered Pluto. Kim Hanson is Education Curator at the museum and a fan of Tombaugh.
He founded the Las Cruces astronomical society and he spent his entire life making astronomy accessible to the public -- a fantastic inspiration to anyone who loves science.
Kim spoke with his family and says Tombaugh probably wouldn't be mad that Pluto was dropped as a planet.
People thought he would have been upset. And they said no, he would not have been upset because he was all about the advancement of science. And it's all about clarity, all about refinement and he would have been fine.
The Museum of Nature and Science has some history of its own. For the last 25 years, it was inside the Mesilla Valley Mall.
And one artifact came with it during the move. The nature center from the old location is now at the new one.
This facility here is twice as big as it was at the mall. And we're really able to focus on things that are specific to this region of southern New Mexico.
And with all that new space, the museum has added a space exhibit and prehistoric track ways exhibit.
The trackways were lifted directly from the Robledo Mountains and show fossilized tracks from whatever animals walked across at the time.
Also at the museum is a cast of a Tyrannosaurus Rex named 'Stan.' Stan was found in South Dakota, but dinosaur bones have been found all across New Mexico.
But Kim says that may not be the first thing you see.
When you walk in the front door, first thing you see is this mural with the track ways and it's fantastic. It's an amazing suite of fossil footprints of several different animals -- not just one. It's a snapshot in time, a single moment of a whole bunch of animals walking right here when this was a seashore.
The new museum of nature and science connects to the museum of art, so visitors can walk between the two. Richard Quick sums up what he wants the new museum to do.
It shows everything about this area... what has been, what is now and what will be, said Quick.

Pentaceratops Fossils Airlifted in New Mexico
In late October of 2015 the New Mexico Museum of Natural History and Science, with partners including the U.S. Bureau of Land Management and the New Mexico National Guard completed several years of excavation with the airlift recovery of the first-ever full skeletal fossil of a juvenile Pentaceratops dinosaur, and the skull of an adult Pentaceratops out of New Mexico's Bisti Wilderness and Ah-shi-sle-pah Wilderness Study Area.
Museum crews worked more than two years excavating the fossils, ultimately encasing them in jackets of plaster for transport.
The New Mexico National Guard transported the heavy payloads via Black Hawk helicopters an area off the designated wilderness space, and a waiting flatbed truck for the trip to the museum in Albuquerque.

New Mexico Museum of Art, Santa Fe / Interview with Tim Rogers and Joseph Traugott
The New Mexico Museum of Art in Santa Fe is the oldest museum in the state. It’s mission is to promote the art of New Mexico by placing it into various contexts, especially in an international context. The history of the museum goes back 12000 years. It concentrates on the period from 1880 when the first railroads connected New Mexico to the rest of the United States, and focuses on the fusions that have taken place between Native American, Hispanic, and European American Art. In this video we meet with Tim Rogers, Chief Curator, and Joseph Traugott, Curator of 20th Century Art of the New Mexico Museum of Art to learn more about the museum, its collection and exhibitions, and the Santa Fe art scene in general. The current exhibitions are “How the West is One – The Art of New Mexico” (curated by Joseph Traugott), “Tuff Stuff” (work by four New Mexican artists, Dunham Aurelius, M Diaz, Harmony Hammond, and Jack Slentz; curated by Tim Rogers), “Flux – Reflections on Contemporary Glass”, “Gustave Baumann – A Santa Fe Legend”, and “Georgia O’Keeffe’s Legacy in New Mexico”. New Mexico Museum of Art, Santa Fe, New Mexico / USA, July 7, 2008.
