Museums are marvellous places, full of stories uncovering our history and tales from across the world. Mysteries from the Museum will share three unbelievable stories, revealing their secrets to unsuspecting audiences.
Join ABC Radio National’s Big Ideas host Natasha Mitchell as she forages down the rabbit hole with her three extraordinary guests.
Featuring AI expert Prof Toby Walsh connecting the dots between a scrap of paper and an 18C English mathematician, author Andrew Stafford sharing the discovery of a headless bird in the Museum’s collection and it’s link to an “extinct” nighttime creature, and Principal Curator Geosciences Dr Andrew Rozefelds revealing what object took 10 years to identify (hint, it’s over 252 million years old).
