Headline: Immersive Virtual Reality Experience Brings You Face-To-Face With A Lifesize T-Rex

Caption: A brand new immersive virtual reality experience in New York will bring you face-to-face with a lifesize T-Rex. The American Museum of Natural History's upcoming exhibition ‘T-Rex: The Ultimate Predator’ will let museum-goers get up close and personal with the famous predator and also allow them to build a Tyrannosaurus Rex bone-by-bone using virtual reality. The exhibition, which will celebrate the museum's 150th anniversary, will introduce guests to the entire Tyrannosaur family and reveal the amazing story of the most iconic dinosaur in the world through life-sized models. “Dinosaurs, and Tyrannosaurus Rex in particular, are such an important and iconic part of the Museum and have been throughout our history,” said Ellen V. Futter, President of the American Museum of Natural History. “So it seems fitting to launch the Museum’s 150th Anniversary celebrations with a major new exhibition on the ever-intriguing King of Dinosaurs. This exciting and fascinating exhibition will do what the Museum has done throughout its history and continues to do today: share the latest scientific breakthroughs with the public, introduce visitors to the researchers on the cutting-edge of discovery, shed new light on the great story of life on Earth, and inspire wonder and curiosity in visitors of all ages.” The exhibition opens to the public on March 11th, 2019.
