LONDON, Dec. 20 (UPI) -- Britain's Science Museum says visitors can interact with 80 of its most precious artifacts, using an iPad app to study, rotate and operate them.
The Journeys of Invention app will include artifacts hand-picked by museum curators, and will allow visitors to examine a flea using Robert Hooke's 17th century microscope, encode messages using a German Enigma machine from World War II, and tour of the control panel of the Apollo 10 command module -- an area not normally accessible for museum visitors to explore.
