HR MacMillan Space Centre
Popular with packs of marauding school kids – expect to have to elbow them out of the way to push the flashing buttons – this high-tech science center illuminates the eye-opening world of space. There’s plenty of fun to be had battling aliens, designing a spacecraft or strapping yourself in for a simulator ride to Mars, and there are also movie presentations on all manner of spacey themes. There’s a stand-alone observatory (open weekends, weather permitting, entry by donation) across from the main entrance, and a popular planetarium running weekend laser shows (tickets $10.75) with music by the likes of Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd.
