I remember that the exhibit on human development at the Boston Museum of
Science made a huge impression on me as a kid.  I distinctly remember that
exhibit, as well as one in which you could see a feather falling in air
and in a vacuum (compared with a heavier object).  Really neat!

p.s. the weirdest museum exhibit piece I've ever seen was in a small
museum somewhere out west (I've forgotten exactly where).  The museum had
a very odd assortment of things: coins, license plates, 1950s memorabilia,
archaeological artifacts, etc., as well as a number of mounted animals on
the walls.  Along with the mounted heads was the stuffed rear end of a
whitetail deer, with plastic eyes put on either side of the tail, and a
mouth under the tail (so that the tail looked like a snout).  The label?
"Werewolf".
