   Exhibit Visuals:    --  Investigate three crime scenes: a suburban living room, a hotel alley,       and a remote desert. Each scene represents a very different crime       mystery. Go through the exhibit to identify and gather evidence;       analyze materials with the help of the latest scientific and       technological advances and formulate hypotheses about the crime.    --  Explore two separate crime labs where you can interact with the       state-of-the-art technology used in evidence analysis. Trace vehicle       tracks, clothing fibers, and paint chips. Collect data from mass       spectrometry and microscope analysis. Evaluate digital evidence       provided by cell phones, fingerprints, blood patterns, and ammunition       casings.    --  Examine forensic art and use age progression techniques to assist in       matching an image with a victim. At the end of the exhibit, use the       scientific information you gathered to answer a survey, and a case       summary of everything you have gathered will be generated.    www.californiasciencecenter.org
