I can’t imagine how a space-themed park can go wrong. It can’t. The park is as much about exploration as it is about first conquest. There’re full size models of the Ariane 5 rocket, Mir space station and the Soyuz modules. There are immersive interactive exhibits through which you can mimic putting rickets into space. The Terr@dome displays the history of the universe from the Big Bang to the forming of the solar system. There’s two planetariums. There’s physics lectures…the place is huge and with surprises in every corner. Half the parts and pieces you see here, engines and all are the real deal. For a kid, it’s a whole new sort of wonderland. There’s even an exhibit on the Mars Lander now.
