With apologies for cross-posting:

The fourth issue of the Science Museum Group Journal is now available to view online at http://journal.sciencemuseum.org.uk/issues/autumn-2015/ 

Issue 04 of the Journal collates an interesting mix of original research and discussion articles, as well as a book review and an exhibition review. The content reflects the recent opening and acclamation awarded to the new Cosmonauts exhibition, with one article that reflects on the challenges of curating such an exhibition and another that analyses the modern interest in space tourism. We also have two articles which research historic Leonardo da Vinci exhibitions and their associated models and objects. Other articles focus on new methods in sustainable storage of museum collections, early microphone recording techniques relating to the Nightingale broadcasts, a favourable review of a new Lovelace and Babbage illustrated novel, and a review of one author’s visit to the Fairfield Heritage Centre.

The Journal presents peer-reviewed papers that are relevant to the wide-ranging interests of the Science Museum Group. Here we share research conducted by SMG’s four national museums as well as featuring contributions from international scholars that resonate with our collections and practice.
