Living roofs with skylights. They are heat sensitive and open automatically when they reach a certain temperature to get a breeze going inside



Bloggers and Bay Area journos were invited on a behind-the-scenes, not-quite-ready-for-primetime tour of the updated Steinhart Aquarium and California Academy of Sciences recently. It's all slated to re-open the end of September. Shawn Connally, MAKE's Managing Editor, jumped at the chance to go on the hour-and-a-half long tour and snapped some pics along the way. She says she's definitely ready to sign up for a membership!





































Damn. I should have stayed in Monterey a bit longer.
