Become an engineer as you walk our 80-foot-long Mini Mac Bridge, travel our roundabout, work the U.S. Steel Fun Factory and more.
Nano Gallery
Nano is an interactive exhibition that engages family audiences in nanoscale science, engineering, and technology. Hands-on exhibits present the basics of nano science and engineering, introduce some real world applications, and explore the societal and ethical implications of this new technology.
Waves and Vibrations
From the Lumenarium to the Seashell Pipes to the walk-in kaleidoscope, this is the gallery to experiment with sounds, colors, reflection, waves, and more.

Earth. Wind. Weather. sponsored by General Motors, features 10 new interactive exhibits that put guests in control of some of nature’s most powerful and impressive phenomena. Create avalanches and geysers, explore Jupiter’s otherworldly atmosphere, command ocean waves, step into a powerful tornado, transform desert landscapes, and more with this immersive new experience!
Earth. Wind. Weather. is included in the price of general admission and is a part of MiSci’s new virtual field trip program.
This experience will help learners of all ages understand how STEM concepts shape their world, as well as highlighting potential future careers. Relevant STEM learning, including engaging with real world phenomena like weather and climate, helps students connect more deeply with underlying science content and relate those connections to the world at large.
Earth. Wind. Weather is brought to you by General Motors with additional support from the Zatkoff Family Legacy Fund, Harman International, and PLEX Systems Inc.
