The museum was home to nearly 12,000 objects consisting of permanent collection items as well as loaned items and archive materials. Its museum exhibits and stores contained over 500 years of cultural history, including artifacts dating back to the Spanish Colonial Period.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After flood waters receded, items were salvaged and some shipped to the Smithsonian for possible restoration. Since the flood, the museum has been closed with the reopening date to be determined. With the physical collection inaccessible, the museum urgently needed a way to preserve, interpret, and share its heritage digitally with educators and the public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"tl-cta-block\"><h3>Book a free consultation<\/h3><p>If you\u2019d like to learn more about how you can use ThingLink in K-12, Higher, Vocational or Museum Education, book a free call with our Education Specialist today.<\/p><button class=\"tl-button tl-button--white tl-button--small tl-cta-block__button\" data-link=\"https:\/\/calendly.com\/troy-thinglink\/30min\">Book a free consultation<\/button><\/section>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the irreplaceable spaces which was tragically lost was the Robert H. Goddard Rocketry Collection, including Professor Goddard\u2019s original workshop space, as well as research and scientific artefacts dating from the birth of modern rocketry and space flight. This loss was particularly significant given that 2026 was set to be the national Goddard \u201cFirst Launch\u201d Centennial Anniversary &#8211; celebrating 100 years since the first modern rocket launch.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Educator C. Catalina Collins had recently moved to New Mexico from California, and at a community meeting, she learned about the devastation and the museum\u2019s uncertain future. Seeing both a crisis and an opportunity, Cat reached out to the museum with an idea: to recreate the destroyed workshop as an interactive virtual exhibition that could inspire children and reconnect the museum with educators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"810\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thinglink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Roswell-Museum-edited.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12853\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thinglink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Roswell-Museum-edited.png 810w, https:\/\/www.thinglink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Roswell-Museum-edited-225x300.png 225w, https:\/\/www.thinglink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Roswell-Museum-edited-768x1024.png 768w, https:\/\/www.thinglink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Roswell-Museum-edited-648x864.png 648w, https:\/\/www.thinglink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Roswell-Museum-edited-432x576.png 432w, https:\/\/www.thinglink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Roswell-Museum-edited-324x432.png 324w, https:\/\/www.thinglink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Roswell-Museum-edited-243x324.png 243w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 810px) 100vw, 810px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image: Roswell Museum (roswell-nm.gov)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Project Vision: Rebuilding Access Through Virtual Experience<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Cat proposed translating the lost physical space into an online learning environment that would let students experience the workshop from anywhere. For the museum, this virtual space would provide a permanent digital interpretation of a destroyed archive space &#8211; preserving institutional memory, maintaining public engagement during closure, and extending access beyond geographic and physical limitations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The goal was twofold:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Preserve the educational and scientific value of the destroyed workshop using digital content.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Create an engaging science experience that teachers could easily use in classrooms.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>After initial meetings in November, the museum granted permission to proceed. Cat began building the project in early December and completed the first version of the interactive tour by the end of the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Choosing ThingLink: Designing for Immersion and Access<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Using ChatGPT to explore possible tools, Cat identified ThingLink as the best platform for creating a layered, interactive resource. The design of the user experience was intentional:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Teachers should be able to understand and navigate the experience in about 10 minutes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Students should be able to explore for much longer, discovering content at their own pace.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Cat focused on creating a multi-sensory experience using visuals, audio, information panels, and animated tags layered onto archive photographs of the workshop. The goal was to make users feel as though they were standing inside the lab &#8211; without requiring virtual reality headsets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The experience emphasized an important message: rocket science was built by creative and persistent people using everyday tools, sometimes in garages and workshops. Curated sound design, including classical music and ambient workshop noise, reinforced that atmosphere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"830\" height=\"554\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thinglink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Screenshot-2026-01-29-10.45.26-AM.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12855\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thinglink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Screenshot-2026-01-29-10.45.26-AM.png 830w, https:\/\/www.thinglink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Screenshot-2026-01-29-10.45.26-AM-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/www.thinglink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Screenshot-2026-01-29-10.45.26-AM-768x513.png 768w, https:\/\/www.thinglink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Screenshot-2026-01-29-10.45.26-AM-647x432.png 647w, https:\/\/www.thinglink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Screenshot-2026-01-29-10.45.26-AM-485x324.png 485w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">One of the interactive workshop scenes from the learning experience<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Execution and Reception: A Powerful First Impression<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A critical factor in the project\u2019s success was the user-friendly and intuitive design of ThingLink itself. Although Cat was a brand-new user of the platform, she was able to independently design, build, and polish the entire immersive experience in just two weeks. Without a technical team or prior training, Cat quickly mastered layering media, adding audio, tagging content, and structuring learning pathways. This ease of use allowed Cat to focus on pedagogy and storytelling rather than technical hurdles, demonstrating how accessible ThingLink is for educators looking for new ways to create sophisticated digital learning environments without specialized production or graphic design skills.

The interactive elements &#8211; audio narration, pulsing tags, and layered information panels &#8211; make the resource highly engaging. The museum experience does more than simply replace a lost space; it has transformed it into an educational ecosystem that is able to reach far beyond the museum\u2019s walls. For museum staff, the tour could also become a flexible interpretation tool &#8211; one that could support outreach, donor engagement, school partnerships, and future exhibitions once the museum reopens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1010\" height=\"395\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thinglink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Screenshot-2026-01-29-10.46.11-AM.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12856\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thinglink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Screenshot-2026-01-29-10.46.11-AM.png 1010w, https:\/\/www.thinglink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Screenshot-2026-01-29-10.46.11-AM-300x117.png 300w, https:\/\/www.thinglink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Screenshot-2026-01-29-10.46.11-AM-768x300.png 768w, https:\/\/www.thinglink.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Screenshot-2026-01-29-10.46.11-AM-576x225.png 576w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1010px) 100vw, 1010px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Another interactive scene from the experience<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Educational Impact: Differentiation, Enrichment and Scalability<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Cat quickly recognized ThingLink\u2019s broader potential. Once familiar with the tool, she was able to create additional enrichment tours in about 20 minutes each, including AI-generated imagery and tagged content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cat describes ThingLink as the \u201cbest edtech tool\u201d she had seen in a decade, in part because of its ability to support differentiation:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Younger or struggling learners could access basic explanations.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Advanced students could explore deeper scientific concepts.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The resource also introduces students to the purpose and mission of museums, including conservation, interpretation, access, ethics and education &#8211; helping learners understand how museums preserve knowledge as well as display it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, it includes links for educators to generate NGSS standards-aligned Forces &amp; Motion lesson plans. Educators can select a grade band, rocket activity, and optional enrichment focus to build a complete lesson sequence. This addition makes Cat\u2019s ThingLink a complete classroom-ready resource for teachers who might feel unsure about teaching science.

The virtual workshop will continue to preserve and share the museum\u2019s legacy &#8211; even while the real-life building remains closed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cat also submitted the project for awards consideration, including the National Science Teaching Association\u2019s elementary teaching award, with the hope of encouraging and supporting elementary teachers who may feel hesitant about teaching science.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Conclusion: Turning Loss into Lasting Access<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Through ThingLink, Cat was able to transform the remains of a destroyed workshop into an opportunity for innovation and inspiration. The project not only recreated a lost learning space but expanded its reach worldwide &#8211; offering an immersive, interactive science experience that can be accessed from anywhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In doing so, Cat helped the Roswell Museum maintain its educational mission, reconnect with schools, and preserve this incredible story until the doors can finally reopen. Her project serves as a versatile template for educators and museum curators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Read more: City of Roswell Museums<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In the decades following Robert H. Goddard\u2019s history-changing rocket tests, Roswell, New Mexico entered the public imagination through the events of 1947, when a mysterious crash outside town was first reported as a \u201cflying disc\u201d and later reclassified by the U.S. military as a weather balloon. That reversal ignited decades of speculation and fascination with extraterrestrial life. Over time, Roswell has embraced this moment of Cold War secrecy and transformed it into a defining cultural identity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, Roswell stands at the intersection of science and myth: Goddard\u2019s very real legacy of spaceflight, alongside enduring questions about the universe.&nbsp;Roswell is also home to a vibrant and thriving arts community.
