I expected a quiet planetarium visit and perhaps one respectable hour of looking upward. The Boonshoft Museum of Discovery combines a children’s museum, science center, natural-history museum, planetarium, observatory, and accredited Discovery Zoo inside one surprisingly large building. The museum blends hands-on learning with live animals, space exploration, fossils, natural-history collections, and interactive science exhibits. Planetarium programs, science demonstrations, animal encounters, and feedings can change from week to week. One visit might revolve around the otters, while another could focus on the planetarium, fossils, science demonstrations, or climbing areas.
