The middle schoolers that traveled for a field trip that day in their red Christian school shirts made the science museum trip even more worthwhile. They walked him through exhibits and it was just so cute. The family's we met were so kind and the staff was unbelievably awesome. Thank you to the staff, they're were like 11 people who helped us along the way!!"

There is a lot to see, from interactive exhibits that kids can throw themselves into to larger displays that reward slow reading and attention, so it works well for both quick visits and longer afternoons. Seeing the space shuttle exhibits up close gives the whole place a sense of scale and wonder that is hard to forget. I also appreciated that the staff were patient and helpful, even with crowds, which kept the whole experience energetic rather than chaotic."

There are extra activities that charge such as the IMAX theater, space simulator, rock wall and hurricane tunnel simulator. They have space exhibits, tons of interactive areas, an aquarium and sports building. It wasn’t very crowded. The kids and I really enjoyed it. We touched some starfish, a wall of ice, played with some interactive exhibits. There’s a food court on the first floor, a rose garden and several other museums right outside of the science center. We were there for several hours and did not get a chance to see everything."
