Science Sleepovers!

Science After Dark

Bring your family or Scout troop on a Science Quest, embark on a 3D scavenger hunt, and explore the science behind anaglyph 3D. Investigate ultraviolet light in our glow room and try out some night vision goggles as you discover how nocturnal animals view the world around them. You might get to snooze next to R2-D2, dream beside seahorses, or catch some Z's in a space station.
