Pacific Science Center
|
The Pacific Science Center is a science museum in Seattle, Washington.
The center is made up of a collection of a few buildings with numerous exhibits. It has several permanent exhibits, like their dinosaur and robotics exhibits, and hosts temporary exhibits, including a RMS Titanic exhibit. It has a laser dome and two IMAX theaters. The newest one (also the most commonly used) was paid for by Boeing and carries its name; other contributors also donated. This science center is geared towards children but has exhibits for all ages. There is even a exhibit where small children can play in a climbing area that looks like the Space Shuttle. For adults, there is a small collection of animals, mostly lizards and insects. There have been many specialty exhibits, such as one on aliens. There is a small admission fee. The Pacific Science Center is located within walking distance of the Space Needle and is part of the Seattle Center. It is housed in what was the United States pavilion for the Century 21 Exposition in 1962.
