Реплика с «ДНК» динозавров из «Парка Юрского периода» подорожает до $200 000 на аукционе

Something small that leads to something enormous is at the thrilling heart of so many memorable movie plots. And when that tiny thing is DNA found inside a mosquito that has been trapped in amber for eons, and the big result are colossal dinosaurs living in an era that is not their own, well... you're clearly in "Jurassic Park" territory. Stream Los Angeles News for free, 24/7, wherever you are. That's how the ancient beasts are brought back to life in the 1993 blockbuster, making the amber-bound mosquito fossil a highly important prop in the annals of film fandom. Now "a screen-matched mosquito in amber fossil" from the Steven Spielberg-helmed movie is headed to a Propstore pop culture auction, a treasure that is estimated to fetch $100,000 to $200,000. Yes, it is resin and not amber, and no, a real Tyrannosaurus cannot be created from the "mosquito" seen within the eye-catching item. Still, the future owner of the world-famous prop will surely want to display it like they are the proprietor of Isla Nublar. Will a can of shaving cream be placed nearby to complete the cinematic scene? Fingers crossed. "Constructed from resin textured and painted to resemble amber encased in stone, the production-made fossil features a prehistoric mosquito embedded within the resin," shared Propstore.
