What is the importance of a museum?

Well, museums have importance for people who enjoy history, or who are very interested in one particular subject. There are Art museums, Railroad museums, dollhouse museums, and museums devoted to history, or the history of a certain area. There are many, many other types as well. For people who love paintings by very popular artists, but are too poor to buy a painting, Art museums are probably the only chance they will have to see an original... Picasso, for example. Museums are a popular tourist activity. When you go to a new state or a new country, seeing some of the history pictured or described at a museum is interesting and even fun. I have been to visit a couple of large dams, and seeing the historical information about how the dams were built was fascinating to me. That said, obviously all museums aren't going to appeal to all people. There are as many types of museums as there are interests, and so... if you like cars, you could go to a car museum. :) If you like sports, you could go to a sports museum (could be called a hall of fame). If you like books, you could go to the library... or, er... many museums display old books and documents. :) See the related link below to see the website of some of the Smithsonian Museums, if you are interested. Answer 2: I actually love museums especially when you travel out of your own area. Museums are a treasure trove of history and culture. In Awake magazine 3/8/05 it says in Washington, DC without a doubt, the preeminent center of interest for visitors is the Smithsonian Institution. Because it is not merely one museum-it is a whole collection of museums and centers of knowledge. According to one travel guide the most popular of the Smithsonian facilities is the National Air and Space Museum- the most visited in the world. It has 23 extensive galleries and its exhibits, many hanging from the ceiling, illustrate the history of flight. On display is the Flyer, the very airplane that Orville Wright used for his historic flight at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, in 1903. Nearby is Charles Lindberg's Spirit of St Louis. Interested in bank notes-the Bureau of engraving and statistics is walking distance away. Over $140 billion worth of money is printed here each year. Nextdoor is the Holocaust Museum, and the National Museum of the American Indian. I visited the Louvre in Paris which is rated second in the world and got to see the tiny, yet amazing Mona Lisa and the Moabite Stone. A week later in Spain I visited the Picasso museum. These are things you read about and the amazing history contained in them, but when you actually get to visit and see for yourself, you are in AWE!!!!! Plan a museum trip, you will not regret it.


I was taking pictures in every room of the fire station in one room however the screen of the camera turned to static like on tv and red then went away when i left the room why did this happen?

there is a strong possiblity that tihs was meer coincidence unless you felt something like a pressance of some sort it could have driven somthing in your cameras wiring dont get too freaked out though and if its really eating away at you call a specialist on pressances or even spirits!


Is it okay to jump start a car at a gas station right beside the pumps?

Let's see, you are possibly creating a spark right next to a hundreds of gallons of highly flammable liquid. Sound safe to you? Would it not be a wise decision to push the car away from the pumps before jumping it? I think it would. What do you think?


Question of the day.....on a trip and you need to pee but you need to get there do you stop and pee behind a billboard or hold it inel you get there evethough it is 3 hours away even?

I'd choose to pee behind a billboard if it was super duper urgent. Otherwise, If I could find one, I'd go to a nearby gas station or something and pee there...
