What People Are Saying About Orlando Science Center
The Editor
Sandra Carr

In Short – Future scientists have an abundance of research data and wildlife for their educational training at this Orlando destination. The facility features an observatory where you can stargaze through Florida's largest public refractor telescope on weekend nights, an 8,000-square-foot domed screen for your Imax film-viewing pleasure and traveling displays throughout the year. Weddings, birthday parties and special events add to the venue's flavor.

Top notch--fun and learning mixed

The Science Center combines a wide variety of exhibits, things to do, and interesting displays with the Cinedome, which is fantastic.

Great for Kids
by orlandorater
Loved this place. Had so many interactive things you could do. By far one of the best places you could bring the little ones to and help them (and yourself) learn a little bit more about science.
- Pros: Multilevel Exhibits, Parking
- Cons: Expensive

Really neat hands on activities
by pmcquiston10
I took my nieces and nephew visiting from North Carolina to give them a break from the parks. They thought it was the greatest! They really enjoyed "Body Works" and the earthquake machine.
