The American Museum of Natural History unveils its new Hall Of Human Origins:

"The new Anne and Bernard Spitzer Hall of Human Origins at the American Museum of Natural History, a permanent exhibition hall that presents the remarkable history of human evolution from our earliest ancestors millions of years ago to modern Homo sapiens. The innovative Spitzer Hall of Human Origins explores the most profound mysteries of humankind: where we came from, what makes us human, and what lies ahead for our species. It combines, for the first time in a major exhibition of its kind, a wealth of mutually reinforcing evidence from two seemingly disparate fields of science—the fossil record and genomic data—to present a sweeping and comprehensive story of humanity’s origins and progress."
