And the Visitor Center is in fact a museum, with exhibits about the history of crop circles (predating Doug and Dave by several hundred years), their wide distribution (over 50 countries), the science of the circles (how next year's crop grows back in the same pattern as last year's circle - a "ghost" circle), how the wheat stalks are bent/fused but not broken (as happens with D&D's wooden planks dragged across the field), as well as measurements of a wide range of physical parameters (EMF, radioactivity, acoustics, etc.).

Worth a trip if you're in the area.
