You’ll see the MOR paleontology heavy duty trucks and vehicles up close, meet members of Jack’s field crews, participate in hands-on activities that highlight his most famous discoveries, and you’ll be able to speak with Jack in person. Please join in for this special tribute to one of the world’s greatest scientists, Dr. Jack Horner. Since 1982, Jack Horner has expanded the Museum’s three-specimen collection to an internationally recognized, scientifically significant collection of over 35,000 fossils. Along the way, he built the largest paleontology field program in the United States.
