- Halloween decor, but make it scientifically accurate. 🧪 National Geographic Explorer and epidemiologist Dr. Ryan Carney stopped by the MOE show us what’s a trick and what’s a treat in Halloween decor — and all we'll say is that bone-filled spider skeletons are breaking Ryan's scientific heart. 🕷️ #Halloween #TrickOrTreat #HolidayDecor #Decoration #Science
- 5Oh to be a museum that gets to connect you to the wonder of our world and inspire you to stay curious — because exploring is powerful, and exploring is for everyone. 💛 #Museum #Nature #Hopecore #Inspiration #Optimism
- A quick lesson on why bats = Halloween from a real-life National Geographic Explorer! 🦇 Disease detective Dr. Ryan Carney breaks down why these vampiric creatures became spooky icons—and the reason isn't what you expect. 👀🎃 #Bat #Halloween #Lore #Science #FunFacts
- Dressing as a pirate for Halloween? 🏴☠️ There's a pretty good chance that your costume is historically inaccurate (according to a real-life National Geographic Explorer). Underwater archaeologist Lisa Briggs has excavated actual pirate shipwrecks like Blackbeard’s flagship, and she’s helping us bust history’s biggest swashbuckler myths to see what’s a trick and what’s a treat. Want to see if your costume passes Lisa's test? She will be speaking live about her work at our spooky-themed Nat Geo Nights on October 29. 🎃 #Pirate #History #Halloween #Costume #Myth
- The Roman Empire lives in our minds rent-free, but what was daily life actually like? Archaeologist National Geographic Explorer Caitie Barrett's research is rewriting history, proving Pompeii wasn't just a little seaside town — it was a bustling global hub connected to an international network spanning continents. #History #Archaeology #Pompeii #RomanEmpire #AncientHistory
- We knew the deep ocean can be spooky, but vampiric crustaceans? That’s a whole new level. 😳 As an epidemiologist, National Geographic Explorer Ryan Carney studies blood-sucking creatures — from mosquitoes and bats to deep-sea species — to understand how to prevent and cure infectious diseases. Looking to learn more? Ryan will be speaking live about his work (and spooky creatures like this guy) at the MOE on Oct 1!
- world-changing science 🤝 delicious cocktails National Geographic Explorer Ryan Carney is a man of many talents — an epidemiologist, a paleontologist and a mixologist who creates cocktails inspired by his work in the field. Join Ryan during our National Geographic Live on October 1 and sip on themed cocktails. 🍸
- What would spooky season be without bats? National Geographic Explorer Ryan Carney is busting some major myths about these incredible creatures the way only an epidemiologist could. 🦇 Looking to learn more? Ryan will be talking about his work at the MOE on October 1! #Bats #Halloween #Myth #Nature #Science
- Whether you're looking for a pre-exploration cocktail or a night cap after your adventures at the MOE, the Ballard Bar has you covered with cocktails inspired by real-life National Geographic Explorers. #Museum #Cocktails #Humor #NationalGeographic #Bar
- 10Summer may be coming to a close, but exploration always awaits. Let your ticket to the MOE be your ticket to the world — no PTO needed. 😉
- You didn't invite mosquitoes to your outdoor summer party, and yet here they are again, crashing — and they didn't even bring anything. 🦟 But, as annoying as they can be, these pesky pests actually do a ton of good for our ecosystem! Take it from National Geographic Explorer Ryan Carney. Want to learn more about nature’s vampires? Ryan will be at the MOE on October 1 for his National Geographic Live event, "Battling Bloodsuckers." #NationalGeographic #Science #Mosquito #Insects #FunFact
- Do you ever feel like mosquitoes single you out during your outdoor summer plans? You're not imagining it. We asked National Geographic Explorer and epidemiologist Dr. Ryan Carney to break down why mosquitoes are attracted to some people more than others. 🦟 And no, it’s not just because you’re sweet (though that might be true 😉). #FunFact #Science #Insects #Mosquitos #NationalGeographic
- Did you know that bats are behind your next margarita? 🍹 National Geographic Explorer Dr. Ryan Carney shared that because agave, the plant used as the base for tequila, is primarily pollinated by three species of bats, these mighty creatures are the reason we are able to sip frozen margs on a hot day. Cheers to the bats! 🦇 #Science #Cocktail #Margarita #Bats #Mixology
- No big deal, just National Geographic Explorer at Large Robert "Bob" Ballard discovering the RMS Titanic. On this day in 1985, Bob and his team discovered the shipwreck on the very last day of a 12-day search, and the rest made history. Now, his groundbreaking legacy in oceanography has a home at the MOE. And, his favorite cocktail has a home at his namesake bar, the Ballard Bar in Explorers Eatery. #Titanic #History #Shipwreck #NationalGeographic #Ocean
- In the case of Wile E. Coyote vs. Real-Life Coyote, real coyotes win every time, according to urban ecologist and National Geographic Explorer Chris Schell. Chris studies how animals like coyotes adapt to our concrete jungles — and confirms these creatures are way too smart to fall for the ACME corporation's malfunctioning tech. Just something to consider if you go see certain new movie on the subject this weekend. 😉 🧨 #CoyoteVsAcme #Cartoon #Coyote #NationalGeographic #Movie
- We might not all be National Geographic Explorers and photographers like Federico Pardo, but with the right technique, we can definitely take pictures like one. We chatted with Federico during his visit to the Museum of Exploration about his top tips for snapping stunning photos using just a smartphone camera. #Photography #PhotographyTips #Photographer #iPhonePhotography #Camera
- What does working at D.C.'s newest museum during summertime look like? A whole lot of fun at the gift shop, exploring the wonder of our world and getting ticket tabs ready for your visit, of course. #DisposableCamera #FilmPhotography #Museum #DITL #Analog
- Marcelo's Roman Empire? The Terracotta Armies of of China's first emperor, Qin Shi Juang. Check out the recreation of this excavation at the MOE! #History #Museum #NationalGeographic #China #ChineseHistory
- Just like nature's canyons, the MOE's iconic spiral staircase creates a reverberated sound when you speak underneath it. So the next time you meet us under the stars, test out this fun architectural (and unintentional!) Easter egg. #Stars #Museum #NationalGeographic #Architecture #Echo
- You say, "The MOE has been quiet on TikTok today." We say, "We're exploring, that's literally our job." But seriously, we love working at D.C.'s newest museum, and we can't wait to keep sharing it with you. 💛 #Museum #WashingtonDC #NationalGeographic #FreeWill #Explore
- Another day, another exhibit in the MOE to obsess over. James' favorite item right now is a fake elephant tusk, and we don't blame him, because it has a real impact on protecting elephants around the world. 🐘 Investigative journalist and National Geographic Explorer Bryan Christy embedded this specially created tusk with tracking devices to research the illegal poaching industry. The result? Learning how to better protect the 30,000 African elephants threatened by the poaching industry. You can learn more about Bryan's work and see the engineered tusk for yourself at the MOE. And make sure to say hi to James when you visit! #Museum #Elephant #Conservation #Poaching #Ivory
- What's your favorite dinosaur? we're a little biased, but ours is obviously spinosaurus. #Museum #Spinosaurus #Paleontology #Dinosaur #Nostalgia
- want to meet us under the stars? (flirting) #Museum #Art #WashingtonDC #Stars #NASA
- and that, friends, is how you build D.C.'s NEWEST MUSEUM! #Museum #WashingtonDC #Timelapse #Construction #Architecture
