OMSI - Samson "The Colossal T. Rex Discovery"
A magnificent 40-foot fossil of one of Earth's most fearsome carnivores is now on display in the Earth Science Hall. The 66-million-year-old skeleton known as SAMSON* is one of the most complete Tyrannosaurus rex skeletons in existence. 56% of SAMSON's original bones, including the nearly complete skull, are on exhibit. SAMSON is smaller but close in length to the T. rex known as Sue, the largest T. rex yet discovered. SAMSON will be on display through summer 2010.
