The Road to Exhibition
When Can I See the Bus?
Museum conservation and the making of an exhibit experience is a two to three year process.
But you can see the bus now 8:00 am - 8:00 pm Monday - Friday at the ConocoPhillips Alaska High Bay Structural Testing Lab at the Engineering Learning and Innovation Facility (ELIF Building) on the UAF campus.
You can also see the bus at any time through our Livestream!

Exhibition & Interpretation
The process of making an exhibit involves many people and moving parts. Learn more about the Interpretive Advisory Team and where we are in the development of our focus for the exhibit and how we capture so many diverse perspectives.
