Boston 101

The artificial intelligence and robotics are what led me to the MIT Museum, but displays of creative genius are around every corner of this fascinating museum at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. While the small museum features wonderful displays of innovative technologies, we also learn about the people who created those technologies. Whether machines of varying kinds, complex robotics, or a contraption that cooks a full Thanksgiving dinner in five seconds using the heat from igniting a rocket, the museum tells the story of the MIT students, teachers, and researchers behind these inventions.
