Lonely Planet review

The Franklin Institute Science Museum is where hands-on science displays were pioneered; a highlight is the Ben Franklin exhibit. Downstairs in Fels Planetarium, laser rock shows feature the standard Pink Floyd-type sounds. The Mandell Futures Center highlights computers, health issues and environmental problems.
