Odyssey's "SHIPWRECK! Pirates & Treasure" Exhibit
Sets Sail for Science Museum Oklahoma
TAMPA, Fla.,
Oct 08, 2008
(BUSINESS WIRE) --
Odyssey Marine Exploration (OMEX:odyssey marine exploration the world leader in the field of deep-ocean shipwreck exploration, announced today that following a successful engagement at the Detroit Science Center, its "SHIPWRECK! Pirates & Treasure" exhibit will next drop anchor at Science Museum Oklahoma (SMO) in Oklahoma City, OK from October 22, 2008 through May 31, 2009.
This interactive multi-media exhibit allows children and adults to learn about the history of shipwrecks and pirates, and also experience the research, search, archaeological recovery and conservation involved in the quest for deep-sea knowledge and treasures. The exhibit features hundreds of artifacts recovered from actual Odyssey deep-ocean archaeological excavations which tell captivating stories about each shipwreck and life during that time.
"We're thrilled to present our "SHIPWRECK! Pirates & Treasure" exhibit at Science Museum Oklahoma among its diverse permanent collection of interactive and historic exhibits and programs. With its family-oriented programming and its experience hosting a successful Titanic exhibit in 2003 and the world-renowned Bodies exhibit in 2008, we are confident that SMO will prove to be yet another outstanding host in our line-up of prestigious science museums and science centers around the country to showcase our treasures," said Mark Gordon, Odyssey's President and Chief Operating Officer.
"We arevery pleased to be able to host an exhibit of this caliber," said Don Otto, President and CEO of Science Museum Oklahoma. "The mission of our museum is to reveal the wonder and relevance of science to all who visit. 'SHIPWRECK! Pirates & Treasure' fits perfectly into that goal by expertly bringing to life the use of scientific methods for research and exploration, then revealing the joy of discovery. Our visitors from Oklahoma and the surrounding region willnot only learnsomething new but have a very enjoyableexperience as well."
"We are looking forward to our collaboration with SMO, and we are greatly appreciative of the excellent work our last host venue, the Detroit Science Center, has done to feature and promote our exhibit. All our past engagements, in New Orleans, Tampa, and most recently Detroit, have shown that the public's interest in deep-ocean exploration and shipwrecks remains very high, and Oklahoma City will be another chance for us to continue to share the excitement of our work with the public," added Mr. Gordon.
Authentic artifacts from many different shipwrecks are displayed in the exhibit, but the spotlight is on the treasures and artifacts of the SS Republic, which represented the greatest shipwreck treasure of the Civil War era. The Republic sank in 1865 while transporting a fortune in gold and silver and much needed supplies to rebuild the war-ravaged South. Odyssey discovered the wreck of the Republic nearly 1,700 feet below the surface of the Atlantic Ocean in the summer of 2003 and recovered more than 51,000 gold and silver coins, and approximately 14,000 additional artifacts in the world's most extensive deep-ocean archaeological excavation.
Guests are also given a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at the research and technology used to locate shipwrecks and can get involved in a hands-on manner in many ways, such as testing their dexterity using a manipulator arm to pick up coins one at a time and identifying artifacts as they are located on the sea floor.
