Science sights in Oakland

  1. A

    Chabot Space & Science Center

    Head to the hills of East Oakland to Chabot Space & Science Center, a hands-on science museum in Redwood Regional Park, which no self-respecting science geek should miss. On fogless Friday and Saturday evenings, scope out far-flung nebulae through 8in and 20in refractor telescopes, and a 36in reflector telescope – one of the largest in the US open to the public. Tickets include access to a stellar planetarium and Megadome theater with a 70ft, seamless domed screen.
