Explore the good, the bad and the downright ugly about how your body works at GROSSOLOGY: The (Impolite) Science of the Human Body at Pacific Science Center. Based on the best-selling book GROSSOLOGY, the exhibition uses sophisticated animatronics and imaginative exhibits to tell you the good, the bad and the downright ugly about runny noses, body odor and much more.

Take a "Tour du Nose" to explore 10 nasal features, including how your snoot acts as an air filter, a smell sensor and a mucus producer. Play the pinball game "Gas Attack" by scoring off bumpers dressed up as food items that cause gas. Mimic the buildup of acid indigestion by causing the "Burp Machine" to release a giant belch. Explore the role of the kidney in a virtual reality experience in "Urine: The Game." Take a ride on the GI slide, climb a large-scale replica of human skin, and discover other mysterious ways your body's biology does what it needs to do to keep you healthy.
