Darwin2009
The Houston Museum of Natural Science isn’t the only science institution celebrating a milestone this year: 2009 is also the bicentennial anniversary of Charles Darwin’s birth and the 150th anniversary of the publication of his On the Origin of Species.

Darwin2009 Houston honors these two immensely significant anniversaries with a year-long celebration of Darwin’s life, his contribution to science, and continuing developments in scientific knowledge.

Check here throughout 2009 for Darwin2009 events held at the Museum. Visit the Darwin2009 Houston web site for information on other Darwin events in Houston, links to resources and a calendar which is updated as new activities are scheduled.
