Scott Polar Research Institute
Named after a man who heroically froze to death in the middle of nowhere for no particular reason, the Scott Polar Research institute does clever things with test tubes and bits of rock all day long. The museum bit simply consists of whatever they've finished with, and some pictures of polar bears and chaps looking really cold. Unmissable no, really.
