Science Museum review 4 Users say 5/5 Rate it
The Science Museum features seven floors of educational and entertaining exhibits, including the Apollo 10 command module and a flight simulator. The Wellcome Wing showcases developments in contemporary science, medicine and technology. The Medical History Gallery in the museum's attic contains a substantial collection of medical history treasures. Pattern Pod introduces under-eights to the importance of patterns in contemporary science and Launch Pad is a popular hands-on gallery where children can explore basic scientific principles. Exhibits in the Exploring Space galleries include the three-metre-high, 600kg Spacelab 2 X-ray telescope that was flown on British space missions and full-scale models of the Huygens Titan probe and Beagle 2 Mars Lander. Tickets to the museum's in-house IMAX cinema cost extra. The shop is worth checking out for its wacky toys, while the Dana Centre is the Science Museum's adults-only centre for free lectures and performance events on contemporary scientific issues (www.danacentre.org.uk).

an amazing day out for all the family. lots of fun activities for the kids and great artifacts for the older minds. gust great!
the Science museum was always a great museum but on my recent visit it had relly upped its game and I found the displays very engaging and interesting.
Kids will love this place as it is full of things to do.
