A new exhibition opened at the museum this week to celebrate a centenary of science in South Kensington. That's right, it's the museum's 100th birthday and to mark this momentous occasion we've picked out ten of the most important objects from our collection. Can you guess what they might be? To find out about all ten objects and vote for your favourite visit the museum. Or, if you'd rather stay at home, take a peek at our new Centenary website.
At the opening Peter Mandelson (above left, answering questions in front of the Apollo 10 space capsule) wished the museum happy birthday and voted for his favourite object: Stephenson's Rocket.

I've been working on this exhibition for the last few months so it was really great to see it open. We'll be using the blog over the coming months to explore all aspects of the centenary, so keep your eyes peeled for new Centenary-themed posts.
