- Ruane CrummettOctober 28, 2016Awesome displays and learned a lot even at my advanced years...The iMax movie on National Parks was spectacular and the sound track was great. If you're in Boston don't miss it!Upvoted Feb 10
- The membership is absolutely worth it. $80/year and regular admission for adults is $20-ish, which means the membership is already paid after 4 (solo) trips in a year or 2 (duo) trips in a year.
- Jeremy KrantzAugust 26, 2014Treat yourself to an amazing show at the planetarium. It is not to be missed and is a lot of fun. Their advanced 'Death Star' projector is able to project more than 9,000 stars onto their screen.
- Laryssa HNovember 8, 2012The math room is awesome! Also- Check your local lib before you go, sometimes they have discounted passes for kids/families. A woman gave my family one and we paid $7/person instead of $22/person!
- Twinkle DenoyoAugust 31, 2017I loved the interactive area, great way to learn new things. My favorites are the foot arch test which determines the arch of your feet as well as the walking efficiency (calories burned while walkin)
- Tim FOctober 10, 2016I kinda feel like science museums are really just reflagged kids museums. Regardless, our kids had a blast with the experiments and displays. Worth a visit.
- HassanAugust 13, 2014Everything is good here but be sure to give yourself plenty of time. The parking charges are a bit high but other then that I loved it.
- Arrive early or come late and the museum is your playground :) To infinity and beyond!
- Mercury is missing! The scale model of the first (and smallest) planet in the solar system (part of the Museum's Community Solar System) was formerly located in the lobby of the museum.
- Jenn BatoreAugust 7, 2013Dead Sea Scroll exhibit is totally worth it! Although, plan on an extra $15 per person w/o audio guide. No need for the aud guide though--so much to read!
- American MensaMarch 12, 2014There are great exhibits for kids, and teens will love the laser shows. Visit the site for more information. Search “laser” for info on the laser schedule or special events. Read more
- Nadia SwanApril 6, 2018Great place for adults and kids. Learned new information and loved the hall of mirrors.
- Amy RobertsonJuly 7, 2018Cool electricity and international space station exhibit, but in general it’s not as good as other city’s science museums (eg San Fran, Chicago)
- Meg BermanDecember 6, 2018With 700 interactive rotating exhibits, family fun has never seemed so educational. Check out the Music Under the Dome experience in the planetarium with music from Pink Floyd, Aerosmith and more.

- Spectacular Plato to go. Tickets are a little expensive but worths . Try a search at Craigslist.org I did it and found ticket for less than 50%.
- Michaela WalkerJune 29, 2016This was the BEST museum I've ever been to!! I could spend days here! Make sure you give this place at least half a day.
- Lou LangeJuly 26, 2021Lots of exhibits. Fun stuff. My granddaughter and the daughter of my son's g/f had lots of fun. Well worth it.
- Paul DaileyNovember 4, 2018Outstanding museum with tons of engaging and educational exhibits, movies and interactive opportunities. Love mos
- Always great for kids and kids at heart. Science nerds will find odd treasures in the Store. I can spread a whole day here easy
- Eric WerthnerOctober 9, 2016So many different types of things to keep the kids entertained! Butterflies were really cool too
- Julia ForsythApril 6, 2012There is a reciprocal membership from the Assoc of Science and Tech Centres for Fernbank GA members, and over 200 other science museums very nice! Just remember to bring your membership card.
- Dana VillmoreJune 24, 2016Such s fun museum! Lots of interactive exhibits that even adults can enjoy
- Shaunna GatelyMarch 10, 2012Classic MOS stuff: baby chickens, dinosaur poop, the Omni theater, musical stairs, the jump wall, lightning show, bees and astronaut ice cream. Glad it didn't change in the last 20 years.
- Carl GriffinJanuary 8, 2016Educational hands on experience. Great place to introduce children to science.
- Zaptravel IncAugust 30, 2013With over 500 interactive displays, the Museum of Science in Boston has plenty of activities to keep people occupied for hours.
- Ceylan Sahin EkerJanuary 2, 2015Most of the displays look outdated. Needs a makeover. The Butterfly Garden should be visited but don't expect much, just a corridor with huuuge and beautiful butterflies :)
- Katerina KouriatiOctober 31, 2016There are so many interactive things to do for huge variety of themes approached scientifically. The electrical live how though was poorly presented though.
- Chris MoosFebruary 24, 2011We opted for the family membership - Totally worth the cost. We can now take up to 5 anytime, and often get the little extras - Free movies sometimes; advanced notice of events and things happening; d
- Carolyn HandyMarch 25, 2016Loved this place. My girls were enthralled for the 4+ hours that we were there. Educational and entertaining.
- BU TodayAugust 9, 2013"Dead Sea Scrolls: Life in Ancient Times" is on display through October 20 showing one of the greatest archaeological finds ever - the Dead Sea Scrolls containing the oldest known texts of the Bible.
- John LFebruary 10, 2013I wouldn't say give it a miss entirely, but if you're heading to New York then don't bother 'cause the contents of this museum pale in comparison to the behemoth Museum of Natural History there.
- Derek ShowermanApril 27, 2013Check out the Shipwreck exhibit. Especially if you have your eyes set on being a real life pirate. Many swords & treasure
- Jeff BridgesAugust 5, 2013Awesome stuff for all ages, but there are always a ton of kids. Look at the computer place.
- Gail KlanchesserMarch 5, 2012Great fun for the kids! Despite not liking math, the kids LOVED the Mathematica exhibit & the physics.
- Sean RourkeDecember 7, 2014It's not what I remember as a kid on field trips. There seem to be fewer interactive exhibits, and more words written on posters you're supposed to read. It's definitely not worth the huge cost.
