HISPANIC SCIENTISTS HONORED AT THE MUSEUM DURING HISPANIC HERITAGE MONTH

September 15 – October 15

From the development of radar technology, which significantly increased safety for aircraft landing in bad weather, to the first Hispanic woman to go to space, Hispanic mathematicians, scientists, and inventors have contributed broadly to our nation's greatness and helped change our world.

The poster exhibition in the museum's Periodic Hall showcases individuals like Dr. Antonia Novello, the first woman and Hispanic to hold the position of Surgeon General, to Dr. Carlos Finlay, a Cuban epidemiologist who pioneered research into yellow fever and determined that mosquitoes spread the disease.

The Hispanic Heritage Month exhibition is included in the museum's admission price.
