Free FreeThe anatomy of insects has fascinated us for centuries. 350 years ago, scientist Robert Hooke looked down his microscope and drew the eyes of a drone fly and the wings of a gnat, and the public were astonished to see these tiny creatures in unprecedented detail. But how much was he able to discover from this new view of insects? Is the way we study them different today? Join a Museum fly expert to discover how our knowledge of insect anatomy has evolved over 350 years.
