Which science-y museum exhibit would you drag your mates to on a rainy Saturday?
Britain's packed with brilliant places to geek out over science, from dinosaur bones to space rockets. Which display genuinely gets you excited to queue in the drizzle?
Put the items in your preferred order.
A
Dippy the Diplodocus
After his tour of the UK, Dippy remains a nostalgic icon for anyone who visited the Natural History Museum as a kid. Nothing quite says 'science trip' like craning your neck at 26 metres of dinosaur.
B
The Apollo 10 Command Module
Sitting in the Science Museum, this scorched capsule actually orbited the Moon. Standing next to it feels like touching space itself, which is frankly a bit mad.
C
The Blue Whale at Hintze Hall
Replacing Dippy in 2017, this real whale skeleton is a jaw-dropping welcome to the Natural History Museum. She's called Hope, and she absolutely earns the name.
D
Charles Babbage's Difference Engine
A gorgeous brass beast of cogs and gears at the Science Museum, showing how close the Victorians came to inventing computing. Steampunk fans, this one's for you.
E
The Mary Rose
Portsmouth's Mary Rose Museum houses Henry VIII's raised Tudor warship alongside thousands of preserved artefacts. It's archaeology, chemistry and history all soaked into one.
