Science Centre Singapore, in collaboration with the Lee Kong Chian Natural History Museum, has launched its largest dinosaur exhibition to date, titled “DINOSAURS: EXTINCTIONS & US”. This expansive showcase, spanning 3,000 square metres, features over 90 artefacts, including 33 rare fossils and 60 full-scale models. The exhibition, which opened on 21 October 2025, aims to explore 400 million years of Earth’s history and the challenges life has faced.
Visitors can marvel at the Patagotitan mayorum, a 40-metre-long dinosaur unearthed in Argentina, and Scotty, the largest Tyrannosaurus rex specimen ever discovered. The exhibition also highlights Singapore’s biodiversity challenges, featuring the great slaty woodpecker, once native to the region but now locally extinct.
Interactive elements include the “Test Your Strength” challenge and “Digital Fossil Dig”, offering hands-on experiences for all ages. Tham Mun See, Chief Executive of the Science Centre Board, emphasised the exhibition’s role in encouraging action against modern biodiversity issues. “Through stunning fossils and immersive experiences, we strive to kindle fascination and encourage decisive action in response to our modern biodiversity emergency,” she stated.
Associate Professor Darren Yeo from the Lee Kong Chian Natural History Museum highlighted the exhibition’s educational impact, saying, “This partnership allows us to amplify the Museum’s education and outreach, making the science of extinction and conservation more relatable and urgent for all Singaporeans.”
Tickets for the exhibition are available, with special pricing for Singaporeans and permanent residents.
