Insider Tips

Reserve the Planetarium First: A free planetarium show reservation (QR code, at the entrance) fills up as the day goes on, so claim your slot as soon as you arrive, then explore at your own pace.
Time the Penguin Feeding: Penguins are fed at 10:30 AM and 3:00 PM daily. Loop back to their tank around either time to catch it.
Drive? Get There Early: The on-site parking garage is limited and closes once full, so arrive early if you need to park.

Do not touch or feed the animals or exhibits unless specifically allowed.
No outside food, drinks, or alcohol inside the museum (except bottled water).
Smoking and vaping are prohibited anywhere on the premises.
Large bags, luggage, and strollers are not permitted in certain exhibit areas.
