Darwin Centre takes doors off museum

Scientists are on display at a new Natural History Museum facility.

Gazing up at the eight-story-high, 65–metre long Cocoon building, you could be forgiven for feeling like one of the 17 million insect specimens it houses. The white concrete structure is the heart of the new Darwin Centre at the Natural History Museum in London, which opens to the public, free of charge, on 15 September.
