Miami Museum of Science


Miami Museum of Science

I will always have a special place in my heart for the Miami Museum of Science.  


  • One of the "Energy" exhibits that we and several others enjoyed was a large dance floor that lights up when you dance.  You can connect your iphone to the exhibit and play your own music. There are several other rooms like a small library and puppet theater.  We discovered these on our own by exploring on our own.
  • I went to see the Pink Floyd show and liked it. It lasts about one hour. The sound is excellent, and this is a very important issue in this type of show. The museum gives you discardable glasses that have a kaleidoscope effect, make you see everything in different colors and patterns, so once the show starts... amazing!!

  • I went to the last weekend of the laser light shows over at the planetarium. I didn't come early enough so I was out of luck on buying a ticket at the counter. Graciously enough I was blessed with finding a group of people with 4 extra tickets for sale. 
  • That turned out perfect for me and my party. 
  • I stood in the line for the Doors show which I had seen years ago multiple times. When I entered I noticed that it was steaming hot in there. Like, an uncomfortable sweaty humid hot. 
  • That wasn't at all what I remembered from the past. 
  • It always used to be a nice comfortable temperature inside the Planetarium. 
  • I don't know, maybe it was the combined body heat coming from multitudes of people that showed up for the last weekend of the shows before the museum ultimately closes its doors for good.

  • This Science museum had various exhibits ranging from a laser light show in the planetarium to snake exhibits. The day of my visit it was "Reptile Day". 
  • They brought deadly snakes and there were various shows showcasing various other reptiles. An interesting exhibit was "Eat like a Reptile" where they served Crickets, meal worms, and chocolate chip cookies with crickets! Of course I wanted to try it as I'm not sure when else I would have this experience and it wasn't that bad loll. 
  • It's a pretty small Science Museum but is a great way spot to stop on a lazy afternoon! The prices weren't too bad and there's definitely something for everyone here.

  • A look inside the construction of the future ‪‎FrostScience Planetarium. Visitors will be able to explore the universe, from the depths of space to the building blocks of the cosmos, at the state-of-the-art, 250-seat Frost Planetarium, featuring a high-resolution, 16-million-color, 8K projection system, surround sound and software that will support the latest immersive experiences.
  •  Whether prepared by people or accidentally preserved by nature, mummies resisted natural decay. Iron coffins like this one sometimes preserve the remains and clothing inside.
  • The brain is so important to keeping the body and mind functioning well that it uses 20% of the body¹s energy (more than any other organ) even though it only makes up 2% of average body weight.
