Reuben H. Fleet Science Center
The Fleet is home to Southern California’s only IMAX® Dome Theater and 100+ hands-on science exhibits for all ages. Watch immersive giant-screen films and amazing planetarium shows in the Eugene Heikoff and Marilyn Jacobs Heikoff Dome Theatre and experience seven galleries of fun, interactive exhibits. A 23-passenger motion simulator ride thrills visitors with journeys into exciting realms. Enjoy sandwiches, salads and healthful treats in Galileo’s Café. Find unique educational toys and games, books, IMAX DVDs and more in the Science Store.
With more than 100 hands-on exhibits, the Fleet Science Center inspires curiosity and sparks imagination in children of all ages… from age 1 to 101! “Kid City” is a colorful, interactive space where small children (infants through age six) can play and learn. Traveling exhibitions such as “Listen Here! Making Sense of Sound” and “Strange Matter” offer a fun and always-changing variety of “do-touch” science exhibits. On the 3rd Saturday of each month, parents and kids can work together to create their own take-home science exhibit at Family Science Days. Live science demonstrations amaze and entertain daily at the Exploration Bar. More Museums & Attractions for Kids >
