Where did you go today? And how did you get there? A visit to the Science Museum of Virginia can help you answer these questions and more!
On Friday, February 16, the Science Museum of Virginia will open its newest exhibition, Going Places, where guests can explore the incredible technology that makes the farthest reaches of our Earth accessible.
Going Places is a highly interactive exhibition, with more than 17 different areas for you to explore. Climb aboard a flight simulator, ride on a hovercraft, sail a land yacht across heavy winds, fly a blimp, and more to explore the physics and technology behind transportation. Learn how the Earth’s awesome size and natural processes, like gravity, wind, currents, waves, friction, and changing landscapes are overcome by ingenious transportation design.
You’ll never look at travel the same again!
Going Places was designed for children ages 5-12, but is an exciting and educational adventure for all ages! Going Places is included with Museum admission which is $14.50 for adults, with a $1 discount for youth and seniors. Children three and under are free and additional discounts for military and EBT card holders are available. Take a wild ride with Going Places, February 16 – August 19, 2018!
