A museum display featuring the Avian Development Facility (ADF), a cylindrical metallic device with a turbine-like opening, mounted on a light blue base. The exhibit card explains this was an egg incubator flown into space in 2001 carrying Japanese quail eggs to study the effects of weightlessness on life. The device sits on a wooden display surface behind glass, with bokeh lights visible in the background. The bilingual signage is in both English and Spanish.
