History[]
The New York Hall of Science was located in the borough of Queens in New York City, New York. Many years ago, the staff, led by Doctor Eric Schwinner, conducted a tour of the New York Science Hall and gave a demonstration on how they controlled radioactive rays in their laboratory. During the demonstration, nobody noticed that a spider had gotten in the way of the radiation wave between the two control rods. The dying arachnid then bit one of the science students, Peter Parker, infusing it with its radioactive blood. Little did they know, but the radioactive bite of the spider imbued parker with fantastic abilities and he soon became the costumed super-hero known as Spider-Man. [1]
