Reuben H. Fleet Science Center

Description:

With exhibits to touch, virtual reality to experience, films to see and fun to be had, the Reuben H. Fleet Science Center is an educational, entertaining experience for visitors of all ages.

The Science Center features more than 100 interactive science exhibits in five galleries, as well as major traveling exhibitions. Visitors can create colored shadows, design images with a sand pendulum, examine the vibration of guitar strings and get their hands on a variety of intriguing scientific phenomena. The Virtual Zone is perfect for adventurous and inquisitive visitors alike. A 23-passenger motion simulator ride offers white-knuckle thrills, while Do-Undo makes visitors the main attraction, recording and instantly replaying your every move forward (as executed) and backwards (in time reversal), faster and faster. The Virtual Zone also features TryScience!, a multi-person science exploration station, with games and experiments on topics like dinosaurs and dolphins.

A must have for hands on science fun for all ages! Don't forget to explore all that Downtown San Diego has to offer for you! Nice grassy areas for picnicking on as well. Right next to a gorgeous fountain and architecture!

This Science Center is fantastic! I visited here as a child, and remember it fondly, but love it even more now that I get to see my child marvel at it! There are two floors of fantastic hands-on science experiments that can be as easy as kids just exploring on their own, or each experiment also has interpretive signs and suggested experimental activities, for those who want to delve deeper into the concepts. The theater is also a unique and fantastic experience. And the kids' play area upstairs that mimicks a city, is fantastic!
