Donna Ra month agoThis is a wonderful center to explore! I think it would be fantastic for adults and children. The Titanic exhibit if awe inspiring. Well displayed and very informative. I recommend the VR experience as well. I also loved the Apollo and Skylab exhibit - very eye-opening on the capsule and life of an astronaut during that mission.
Bobbie Trolio4 months agoOutstanding experience. We did a dome show, and it was amazing! We will definitely be back to see the rest of this building. They have a full ship you can do a tour on also. Parking was very easy, right under the building. It was $10 for the events, but I think it is less just to park for the center itself. They also have a food court and vending machines.
Sharon Blantona month agoI went for a field trip and it is super fun! We went to the dome theater too! I love the penguin love song lol. There are 3 floors of absolute fun, and we got a tour of a ship!
Jason Goudy5 months agoGreat exhibits, lots to do for all ages, even moms and dads. From ancient tech to a futuristic AI exhibit; it has lots to experience. The cafeteria isnt too bad, prices are ok. It gets 4 stars due to the amount of exhibits that were both "temporary out of service" (the energy room) and exhibits that weren't marked but didn't work (strobe light and water), and all the items that were broken (guitars). 2 adults, a 2.5 yr old, and a 6 month old costs 65$...all exhibits need to be working.
Diana Swede2 months agoThe science center is a nice clean educational place to visit. The cafe has excellent food and has very nice staff. Be sure to get your parking tickets validated at the box office. They have a very nice staff to help you!
