We’re the museum looking deeper into the Earth’s past to shape a new future where both people and planet thrive. The Natural History Museum, London is home to over 80 million natural history specimens ranging from spiders and giant squid to dinosaur bones, mosses and meteorites. You can see many on display for free at the Museum but, if that's too far away, watch our channel to bring the Museum to you. Explore what goes on behind the scenes, as our curators preserve some of the weird and wonderful creatures that arrive at the Museum each day. Follow the work of the more than 300 Museum scientists who study topics such as biodiversity, evolution and ecosystems. Protecting the planet, it’s in our nature.
