In the news: Levitated Mass “Rock star” begins its journey to LACMA

What weighs 340 tons and is the largest rock formation to be moved from two points since the Egyptian pyramid?

LACMA is even providing a mapped route of the massive boulder’s journey for Angelenos who wish to observe the rock as it travels to its new home at the museum.
