Did you know your neighborhood might have once looked like a Prehistoric Bikini Bottom?

Welcome to the Science of SpongeBob, where we explore how ancient marine fossils are found all around us! Join NHM's Exhibition Developer/Vertebrate Paleontologist, Matt Davis and Museum Educator, Diana Sanchez as they dive into NHM's newest exhibition: L.A. Underwater. Meet the fossilized ancestors of our favorite Bikini Bottom friends. Discover who uncovered these fossils and what they can tell us about our ancient underwater worlds.

Register on Zoom for the chance to ask your own questions, or stream this session on YouTube Live!

Matt Davis, Exhibition Developer and Vertebrate Paleontologist

Dr. Davis studies large Ice Age mammals like sloths and mammoths, but his favorite thing to do is help make new exhibits at the Natural History Museum. Who did you think wrote all those labels! He loves getting other people excited about fossils.

In Partnership with Nickelodeon
