A DINOSAUR adventure awaits those visiting the British Geological Survey (BGS) for its Open Day at their headquarters in Keyworth this Saturday, June 8.
World leading scientists and support staff from the BGS are inviting the public to explore the past, present and future through a packed programme of tours, talks and hands-on demonstrations.
Kids of all ages will experience a unique glimpse into real 'Jurassic Parks', tsunamis, space weather, energies and many other fields of science.
Guests can make their own dinosaur footprints, take part in green-screen photoshoots, pan for gold and drive a remote controlled underwater vehicle in a 12ft pool.
The day also includes a guest appearance from TV's Professor Iain Stewart.
Professor John Ludden, Director of the BGS, said: "I'm very excited and proud to be opening our doors here for the first time in 26 years following the recent renovation of the site. We invite everyone along to see and learn about our technology innovations as well as meeting our more 'traditional' dinosaurs, rocks and minerals."
Guests are invited from 10am until 4pm.
