The following text is for questions 6 to 9.

    As soon as we step into the museum, a fossil of a Blora Elephant (Elephds hysudrindicus) greets us. It stands tall in the middle of the hall. This male elephant lived 165,000 years ago and died at the age of 49. The discovery of this fossil is extraotdinary, since 85% of the fossils remain intact.

    From this hall we have three choices to explore: to the left we explore Geology of Indonesia, to the right we explore the History of Life, to the upstairs to explore Geological Resources, Benefits and Disasters.

    Geology of Indonesia section exhibits the origin of earth. Here we will see the collections of meteorites. The biggest meteorite exhibited is the Jatipengilon found in Madiun, East Java on March 19, 1884. Its weight is 156 kg.

    If you go to History of Life gallery, we will see lots and lots of fossils here, from many different time frames. The oldest fossil is Stromatolite from 3.5 billion years ago. This museum also has trilobit from Pre-Cambrian period, a replica of Tyrannosaurus rex (T.rex) from Mesozoic and ancient mammals from Indonesia, such as elephants from Quarternary period of Cenozoic.

    A corner of this museum has quite detail information of the dinosaurs. Then, as a souvenir, you just need to go to the 3D photo studio at Geo Museumi Store and pose with the imaginary dinosaurs!

    Going upstairs to the second floor, we go to see the Geology for Human Life Gallery, exhibiting the geological resources, their benefits for the mankind as well as disasters we will face when they are used unwisely. This section is a modem gallery supported with audio visual technology. The first exhibition is a short movie on how a volcano merges until it erupts. We can also see many showcases of various minerals, both metal and non-metal.
