Description
Visitors explore natural-science concepts through hands-on exhibits including "Go H2O," a giant pinball-style mechanism demonstrating water-cycle dynamics such as channeling flow, building dams, and simulating floods, alongside a crawl-through cave, a treetop-canopy observation area, and a simulated environmental-mission control room.
