Space Lab

From planetary exploration to cosmic engineering, Space Lab is an adventure that’s out of this world!

Prepare for launch! Step into Space Lab, a hands-on exploration of space science and interplanetary adventure. Whether you're defending Earth from incoming asteroids, engineering your own rocket, or mining asteroids for valuable resources, this immersive exhibit challenges visitors to think like scientists, engineers, and astronauts.

Exhibit Highlights:

Defend the Earth
Space isn’t just about exploration—it’s about protection too! Deflect or destroy hazardous asteroids using a variety of defense strategies, learning which techniques work best against different threats.

Explore Mars
Join the mission of Perseverance and Ingenuity! Operate virtual versions of NASA’s cutting-edge rover and helicopter, searching for ancient microbial life and mapping the Martian terrain.

Rocket Builder
Become a rocket scientist by designing and launching your own spacecraft. Choose engines, fuel tanks, and payloads to complete daring space missions!

Stellar Playground
Experiment with gravity, stars, and cosmic evolution in an interactive stellar sandbox. Merge stars, create black holes, and watch celestial bodies form and evolve. With space for multiple participants, this collaborative experience is perfect for budding astronomers and astrophysicists.

Asteroid Miner
Test your piloting skills by landing on an asteroid, scanning its surface, collecting samples, and installing ion engines to maneuver space rocks.
