Detroit Science Center

I love physics, but the Detroit Science Center was rather disappointing. I guess the part that bothers me is the stuff is all the same. I was there over 10-15 years ago, and all the stuff they have is almost identical. They updated the building but about 50% of the hands on things are probably older than me.

If I’m not mistaken, they didn’t have one thing about computers! You know that amazing invention that has revolutionized the world?

The Titanic IMAX show was incredibly bad. The sound effects added when a photograph was taken where horrible! The person holding the camera picked strange things to point it at, especially the close-ups of the crew’s faces.

However, there was this cool tornado simulator:

All in all it was not really worth the $7 adminission, nor was the IMax movie worth an additional $4!

    Yes, I agree, it was too expensive for what they had on display. Well, at least now we know and we won't go there again...

    Did you at least have those nice, comfy chairs to take a nap during the movie? Some time ago I fell in a similar trap -- it was a movie about Egypt, but luckily the chairs were really, really comfortable! What a nice nap that was! :-)

    Adriana, yes the chairs were rather comfortable. I didn't fall asleep as I felt I wanted to get my money's worth out of the movie (if possible). I think my chair at work is more comfortable and I'm getting paid while I sleep! Just kidding (I don't sleep at work).
