"Catch the Wind" at the North Carolina Museum of Life and Science is a fantastic exhibition that 
allows visitors to "see" wind as well as explore its affects on nature. The website for that 
exhibition is: http://www.ncmls.org/visit/campus-and-exhibits/exhibits/catch-the-wind.

At the Museum of Science, Boston, we've recently installed wind turbines and created a small exhibit 
that allows visitors to learn about the factors that need to be considered when selecting a turbine 
and the trade-offs of different energy sources. The website for that exhibit is:
