Description
Though the Science Museum of Western Virgina is designed with children in mind, the young at heart will find highly entertaining this facility's delightful range of hands-on exhibits. Get your toes wet exploring the Living River, brush up on low pressure fronts at the Weather Gallery and rock on to the "touch wall" in the Geology Gallery for a glimpse of glowing minerals. The associated planetarium is the place to spot stars at high noon, while it's in the MegaDome theater that you can take a trip to the Serengeti and be back in time for dinner.
