Satisfy your science curiosity in a safe environment
We are grateful for your support and want to ensure you are aware of changes we’re making, along with what we will be asking of our staff, volunteers, and guests.

All New Space Odyssey
The new "Space Odyssey" is all about answering the how, catapulting you into a place where you can touch, see, hear, and, yes, even smell what it’s like to be “out there.”

Science on Tap
t’s time to get the dirt on our natural world at this year’s Science on Tap: Playful in Nature! Join us on Thursday, May 20, at 7 p.m. for an evening of STEAMy science to excite you about the world around us.

Virtual DMNS
Connect with the Museum virtually! Tap into our Virtual Science Academy for fun, interactive experiences hosted by a Museum educator when it’s most convenient for you.

IMAX® Theater
Phipps IMAX® Theater takes you from the comfort of their seats right into the middle of the action as they explore the newest frontiers in science and some of nature’s wildest places on a 3-story high screen.

Discovery Zone
The "Discovery Zone" is bursting with activities that help build a strong foundation of science skills. For the safety of our guests, the capacity of the Discovery Zone is limited and regular cleaning breaks are scheduled. Tickets for the Discovery Zone can be reserved at any kiosk inside the Museum the day of your visit.
