We really enjoyed it, We are from Finletter Academy School in Philadelphia Pa.
Great small museum and well worth the $10 for the small planetarium shows - to support interesting work and educational learnings for future scientists.
Great shows for kids and adults. The visuals and sounds are promise, and the theater is very well maintained. I like how they rotate the shows monthly so there's always new content.
Would be a great place to visit with kids, nothing substantial but overall good. Planatorium is not much great as expected.. Entry is free and 7$ for planatorium..
Such a nice free museum for every age.... my daughters love to walk around
Loved that there was free parking and fun for all agesVisited onWeekendWait timeNo wait
Perfect size for an afternoon trip with little ones. Gets better every time we go. Always check Groupon for a deal.
Very exciting place. Perfect place to kill a few hours while learning.Visited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNoPrice for adult entryFree
This is the best place to go with the kids or just by yourself, you can learn about new Jersey and all the animals, the planetarium is really cool with a huge model of earth and the sun, they have dinosaur bones and the gift shop is very reasonable and it's free! There is a fee for the planetarium, and it's open on Sundays!
Went with Seniors yesterday. They were expecting us as trip was planned in advance. Got there for 11 o'clock show doors were locked as they were expecting storm. It was flurrying out. Got back on bus heading home then we were turned around as they called to say O.K. we'll open for you. Got there we were told there was approx. 1 hour wait. Got back on bus again and left. We were tired and cold.
