What on Earth?
Zoology, meteorology, and geology converge inside SCI’s upper-level experience platform What On Earth? to showcase all walks of life across the state of Iowa:
- Come face-to-face with native creatures of all kinds
- Control the wind to create your own tornado
- Make leaf rubbings from different types of Iowa trees
- Climb inside a cave – but watch for bats!
WHO-HD Weather Studio
Also inside What on Earth?, become a TV star in the WHO-HD Weather Studio where Channel 13 meteorologists broadcast the weather live from SCI each weekday at noon (weather permitting). When the shots aren’t live, try your hand at forecasting weather in front of the green screen!
