'Sounds of the Earth' Explorers

Discover an incredible world of sounds beneath our feet – conversations between whales in the oceans, the low throb of ship engines, bursts of vibrations excited by earthquakes. We normally cannot hear these vibrations as sounds, but working with scientists, sound artist David Stalling has made it possible.

Once you've heard the sounds of the earth in our 'Earth's Traces' installation, explore how sounds are made with our fun, hands-on activities. Jump to make your own earthquake, make giant waves with slinkies, and more.
