A BUG'S LIFE

It's more science than science-fiction, but the new ‘cocoon’ built by the Natural History Museum to rehouse its vast collection of plant and insect specimens has something of the Space Odyssey about it. The largest cocoon ever made by man is a cavernous, windowless 65-metre, eightstorey structure, which is due to open in September 2009 to honor Charles Darwin on his 200th birthday (0) H . The cocoon has grown quietly in west London since it was first conceived in 2001. The cocoon will house not one insect but 17m of them, all carefully filed and annotated along with 3m flowering plant specimens. It is not just these unparalleled archives (1) ______. In the heart of the new building the Natural History Museum will also be putting its greatest living wonders on show: its staff of 220 scientists will be presented in full view of the public. The public will be able to watch scientists at work – preparing petri-dishes, peering through microscopes, eating lunch (2) ______. At various points the public will have the opportunity to interact directly with them, to ask questions and to examine experiments. ‘There's no other museum in the world (3) ______ in this way or on this scale,’ said Dr Michael Dixon, director of the museum. ‘We have hundreds of our own scientists and thousands of others who are visiting, all working with our 70m specimens – (4) ______ to Darwin's finches and the Thames whale. Until now most of our science has been going on behind the scenes. The plan from the start has been to incorporate three elements – the collections, the researchers and the public. In some instances, (5) ______, deep in the heart of the cocoon – the public will be able to interact though the glass via an intercom system. The scientists will be able to see you too so it's a two-way process. It gives an idea of the openness. We've got 17m insect specimens and a lot aren't seen by the public, so it's an attempt to show more. It's always been designed for three purposes: to improve the quality of our collections, (6) ______; to have modern facilities for science and to allow the public to engage with science.’
