MetrolinkNovember 27, 2012Endeavour is a must see while visiting! Very easy to get there by public transit.
Anna JonesDecember 14, 2011Very cool and neat sci-fi architecture- Caught Body Worlds and the Mummies exhibit here, so watch out for body-snatchers!
eric bornemannJanuary 2, 2021Lots of stuff for kids to explore. Gets really loud and crowded on weekends.
Michelle PagaranAugust 25, 2013My niece loved all the interactive exhibits! Great museum type place to take kids.
Audrey LeeAugust 1, 2010Flash flood in the Desert room of Ecosystems exhibit comes at the ten min. mark, but get there a bit early to get a seat in the splash zone, eg @ 3:17pm for the 3:20pm flood.
Paul MeyersJuly 15, 2012The underwater kelp exhibit is great for small kids. They get to see lots of fish and sharks close up.
Endeavor Fest celebrates the anniversary of the Space Shuttle's historic arrival to LA! Check out www.xplorela.com for more awesome events!
So fun and FREE :) I felt like I was underwater in the kelp tunnel! Favorite part: testing my cold tolerance on the ice wall.
John CookAugust 24, 2014Space shuttle exhibit is free with purchase of a special event ticket like Pompeii!
Osman AMarch 31, 2016Stunning it sure brought me back to begging for a special memory . Which affected my eyesight
Yoya AlfaroJanuary 11, 2016If you are a normal person, try not to come on Mondays is full with school kids 😅
Char AsisDecember 17, 2012To beat the crowds of kids that come for field trips, come after 12 PM when groups start leaving for lunch.
Cinthya RamirezJuly 4, 2015It's so cool and u get to see a lot of neat things and even get to ride the shuttle..
Dora CrespínSeptember 22, 2013Coming here by Metro is the best option. No parking fee (is $10 at the Museum)
Darryl JohnsonAugust 17, 2011You gotta check out Mummies of the World, the thing with the 50 foot robot, and Born to Be Wild 3D is so touching.
Rachel CherkisAugust 7, 2014Pompeii exhibit closes at 3:30, not 5, which is what the website says. Go early.
PrincessOnTheGo.comJuly 2, 2010Go to California Science Center. It's FREE and a great place for kids as well as adults. Rt next to the L.A. Coliseum!
Jason LatshawNovember 6, 2010On USC gamedays, be sure you tell the parking attendant you're there for the museum. You'll pay $8 instead of $25 for parking!
Andres ChavezAugust 15, 2012The wall with ice is awesome ! I love putting my friends face on it ! :D- Essay Writing Service UKAugust 31, 2018Best Essay Writing Services Available for Writing Assistance Read more
Mid afternoon on weekdays is the best time to stroll
- They serve Doritos Locos Tacos at the Taco Bell/Pizza Hut Express!
Mike OlsenNovember 27, 2012Definitely lame if you don't visit endeavour shuttle, maybe very young kids would enjoy this place but I doubt it.
It's free to visit and they just opened their new wing called the Ecosystem! It is fantastic!
