Now the Science Guy is back… to find his own blue lab coat and periodic table bowtie on display at the National Museum of American History.

Their exhibition, Entertainment Nation, shows the power of American entertainment to captivate, inspire, and transform. Through the objects and their stories, the ongoing exhibition will explore how, for over 150 years, entertainment has provided a forum for important national conversations about who we are, and who we want to be.
