This Friday, join our team of cosmic rebels to celebrate “May the Fourth” early in our galaxy not so far away! Craft your own glowing sword, get a glimpse of distant planets through our historic 8” refractor telescope known as “Leah,” and discover the mechanics of robotics alongside a familiar sassy android. Then, don’t forget to snap a pic in our Galaxy Photobooth, enjoy a themed cocktail, and discover the fact behind the fiction in your favorite intergalactic fantasy movies. Perfect for fans of all ages, this is one sci-fi inspired adventure you won’t want to miss.
