Great place for the kids ( my kids loved it despite the rudeness I saw from the staff) but staff was actually rather rude. Could have easily had five stars if the staff had been more polite.
The gift shop was really nice. I wish they would give a discount on all items instead of it being a minimum of $5 per item.
Took the granddaughter, it was very interesting. We had a good time, would recommend it to others.
So much to do here! We use to come here on field trips when I was a child and now my kids get to enjoy it! They also have the dome with the stars, that's our favorite! ❤️ ⭐️ we love the museum!
A pretty underrated museum for all it's got. Shark exhibits, a planetarium, reptiles, and some fun stuff upstairs too. Didn't get a chance to check out the treehouse before they closed, so I'll have to go back
I really enjoyed my time with the kids there. I took another person's advice after reading reviews and went during the times when they were going to have shows. Overall it was great!
We weren't able to go inside. They are on the current ASTC list, but when we visited they said they were no longer a member and they wouldn't honor the ASTC reciprocal membership. Staff was uncaring and not very apologetic. First place in the country that we have issues with the membership.
I like it cause I went to see the play room they neat tho but I going again
Looks tiny driving up to the building, continues to underwhelm in lobby. Just beyond the NASA Astronaut Training Aparatos you randomly find yourself entering a cosy clubhouse-style atrium/contained wildlife habitat areanaturally following the curve of the room all of a sudden a seemlessly incorporated show-type seating area appears & an intimate, un-mic'd, approachable team (of sorts) present some really lite & interesting bits of topical knowledge, in a manner like ive never before had the pleasure (I mean, TRUE Pleasure) of interactive-fun-learning. After the show, we joyfilly entered an almost endless array of nook-like areas, rooms, and exhibits that were lighthearted enough in their respective subject matters to keep our excitment level while at the same time grab attention in a way where--learning actually became fun and thrilling. then, the coolest earth inside out planitarium intimate show occurs just down the hall from the actual planitarium full show that lives up to the now higher expectation all of the prior exhibites throughout the museum have built up to this point.
This is the best of it's kind in the area. It is a great learning experience for all age levels. Make sure you schedule a time to go when performances are taking place. The museum as a whole feels dated. It could use some sort of revamping. There's a trail here that is good for exploring things you don't necessarily see everyday. They also have a small zoo-like area. Overall, this is a great activity for families. It does leave a bit to be desired though.
Very cool museum. My kids loved the live animal show. The planetarium is always fun and educational. Clean and well kept museum.
