The Discovery of Oxygen
A detailed exhibit-node design revisiting the experiments that transformed ideas about air, combustion and respiration.
THE IDEA
Oxygen supports combustion and cellular respiration. Its isolation helped replace the phlogiston theory with a modern understanding of chemical reactions and conservation of mass.
WHAT VISITORS DISCOVER
Show how controlled experiments and new evidence can overturn an accepted scientific explanation.
THE DESIGN RESPONSE
The supplied archive documents this topic as Node 17 within the 3BC exhibition area. The gallery presents three GOMI detailed-design visualizations from the construction-stage design package.
