The museum great for children ages 5-17. The planetarium( small extra fee) is great for all ages. Other attractions at slight extra fee.

The first part of the show was a short film with two kids who arrive to a telescope, while a narrator discusses types of telescopes made, Galileo's discovery of the solar system's structure and early builds of the telescope. The second part was a nice display using a star projector as the guide pointed out notable stars, distinguished the milky way, and talked about some astrological Constellations near our time of the year. One star gets retracted due not entirely to the fault of the guide but rather the evident miscommunication between them and the front desk. Multiple families interrupted the near beginning of the show because they did not realize they had to pay additional to enter. Also, while of course the museum is built for children interaction, one should expect children to disrupt the experience, which is a heartbreak of you genuinely want to immerse yourself. Generally, I only suggest going there if you only actually want to learn about what they present. You may find it boring or not worth the money if you only treat the experience haphazardly since what they actually explain tends to be difficult to understand.
