007 Science: Inventing the World of James Bond is the inaugural exhibit delving into the science and technology of one of the longest-running movie franchises. Visitors to the exhibit discover how production teams employ real-world science to shape the stories’ cinematic adventures while exploring iconic vehicles, spy contraptions, and props from the James Bond films.

On display are imaginative gadgets from the films alongside their real-life counterparts, such as the prototype jetpack from “Thunderball” presented adjacent to Gravity Industries’ Jet Suit. Movie fans can also step into a “Q”-inspired lab, where top secret field tech is engineered, and test their skills designing Secret Intelligence Service vehicles, executing daring stunts, and more.

Ravenswood Studio was responsible for all the scenic fabrication, platforms for the vehicles and props, and graphic printing and production.
