Short Description:
The Saint Louis Science Center is a hands-on educational paradise that is both fun and free!
Full Details:
The Science Center's Planetarium, near the southeast corner of Forest Park, features the Boeing Space Station where kids can frolic and pretend to be the next Neil Armstrong or gaze upon more than 9,000 stars projected upon the 80-foot dome of the Zeiss Planetarium.
Surrounding the Planetarium is a Dinosaur Park and a Science Playground to thrill the kids. An animatronic Tyrannosaurus feasts upon his prey in the background as you can learn about the various facts relating to it, or explore the exhibit that explains extinction. After visiting the aforementioned attractions, travel across the highway via the skywalk to the rest of the Science Center.
At the Science Center, visitors can touch a tornado, stand face-to-face with a life-sized animatronic T-Rex, watch a film at the OMNIMAX®, and much more. For more information, call 800-456-7572 or visit the St. Louis Science Center website.
