Excited to welcome Iani smithi to the world! Iani is our 3rd new #dinosaur from the @BLMNational Mussentuchit Mbr, UT (3 on the way!) & helps fill data gaps at the dawn of the Late Cretaceous when Earth was becoming a 'super greenhouse,' part of our @NSF mid-Cretaceous project

We found a few of these nibbling on the dill in the pollinator garden this morning. What butterfly or moth will this guy become? #imaginationstationnc #pollinatorgarden #chrysalisorcocoon

Zane had fun making the first stepping stone today. He knows a lot about honey bees! You can make stepping stones to help finish putting the fun in our pollinator garden too! Every Saturday in July #imaginationstationnc #pollinators #steppingstoneproject

Radar locked and cameras on. Looking for a safe spot for touchdown. About to cut free from a perfectly good parachute. I’m all in. #CountdownToMars

Let's work together to celebrate safely over winter break! @ncdhhs recommends avoiding holiday travel and limiting physical contact with people who live outside your household. If you choose to host or attend an event, read these tips for gathering safely.

@ImaginationStat also hosts history exhibits like this amazing one curated by @scuffalong. This was my most recent visit there to learn more about Wilson’s enslaved population & what sources to use to find enslaved ancestors. Share your memories today for #NCMuseumsUnlocked!
