Space: An Out-of-Gravity Experience
May 27–September 4, 2023
Using hands-on and largescale interactive exhibits and multimedia components, Space: An Out-of-Gravity Experience gives guests a glimpse at the extraordinary conditions of human space travel. Witness the innovation that makes life possible in the unforgiving vacuum of space and experience what it’s like to be on board the International Space Station.
Explore conditions that make space travel dangerous. Try out some of the engineering technology that makes life and research possible in space. Answer some of your burning questions about space exploration: How do astronauts sleep in a weightless environment? How do they eat? And how do they go to the bathroom?
Space: An Out-of-Gravity Experience will give you a glimpse of the challenges and triumphs of space exploration. Discover what is possible and what awaits in orbit and beyond.
Space: An Out-of-Gravity Experience will require an additional exhibition ticket. It was designed and developed by the Science Museum of Minnesota in partnership with the International Space Station Office of NASA’s Johnson Space Center.
Presented by the Science Museum of Minnesota and the California Science Center with support from NASA. Local presentation made by Markel.
Wild Kratts®: Creature Power®!
September 23, 2023 - January 21, 2024
Building on children’s natural interest in animals, Wild Kratts®: Creature Power®! transports guests to the Wild Kratts world, where creature adventures engage them in wide-ranging STEM experiences. Diverse environments immerse children and families in explorations of animals, habitats and the relationships between them. Here they can take on challenges and missions centered around the lives of animals and their creature powers.
Using an inquiry-based approach, guests make investigations and observations, and apply what they learn in order to complete missions and challenges. Along the way, they join the Wild Kratts team to undermine villains Zach, Donita, Dabio, Gourmand and Paisley’s nefarious plans, using Kratts technology and the powers of science and teamwork to learn about and help animals.
