Imagination Station

The Anatomy and Exploring Tech class took a field trip to the Imagination Station, which I grew up mostly calling it COSI until it was bought out, and we spent all day there checking out the different exhibits such as Bodies Revealed, and Water Works.  The first place that we stopped by was the Bodies Revealed, and although it was very interesting the look of creepiness or disgust would NOT leave my face. Seeing ACTUAL bodies outside of glass cases or protected was very unnerving. The only way I made it through was telling myself, "This is not real, these bodies are just plastic".  I had no clue what to expect from this exhibit but i'm glad I did experience it.  It wouldn't be a field I would like to work in, but it was still fascinating observing every single part of the human body.  Did you know there are over 100 thousand miles of veins that run through the human body?  Neither did I until I went and read it for myself.  It was definitely a learning experience well worth my time.
