The Making of the Modern World
"The spectacular Making the Modern World gallery charts the timeline and documents the invention of the icons which formed modern society. From the ‘Apollo 10’ command module, scorched and battered from its 1969 moon mission, to the world’s most famous steam engine, Stephenson’s ‘Rocket’ and the Lockheed 10A Electra aircraft that first flew in 1934 and helped revolutionise air transport, Making the Modern World offers an engaging backdrop that is guaranteed to awe and inspire for truly memorable events."
