Do you have what it takes ... to live and work in space?

Explore the forbidding environment of space, including the very real dangers that astronauts face and the cutting-edge technologies that engineers have developed to help them survive. Experience the sights, sounds, smells and sensation of floating as you climb aboard a full-scale, rotating mock-up of the Destiny Lab on the International Space Station.

Learn how astronauts eat, sleep, and even go to the bathroom. Discover firsthand the challenges of working in space – operate a robotic arm, manage the limited power supply for life support, test your motor skills using a space glove and more.

Members receive unlimited free admission, visit as often as you like!
