Overview of 007 James Bond Exhibit at Museum of Science and Industry Chicago

I had an opportunity to “bond” with spy movie expert Tom Pizzato at the press opening for the new 007 Science: Inventing the World of James Bond beginning March 7, 2024 and running through October 2024.

The museum has partnered with Eon Productions who own the rights to all things Bond in order to pull off this exhibit which focuses heavily on the science and industry aspect of the popular spy franchise. The inventive nature of the “cold war” spy world era anticipated many technological advances that we take for granted today, including car phones, personal communication devices, miniature cameras as well as a prototype jetpack and suction cup climbers.

Running into Tom Pizzato who is the co-founder of SpyMovieNavigator.com was lucky for me and for you too since Tom is a veritable expert on James Bond films. In this podcast Tom will share what he found to be interesting at this exhibit and give you some insight into what you can expect to see.

Whether you are a Bond fan, spy fan, movie fan or just haven’t been to the Museum of Science and Industry in a while consider a trip to Hyde Park to visit one of Chicago’s gems just steps away from the University of Chicago and in the shadow of the Obama Library scheduled to open in late 2025.
