We love it!!! It was too cloudy to see through the telescope but there are lots of educational exhibits. We were not able to get into a planetarium show either may come back during the day.

Great views but poorly manage parking. You get up there to a full parking lot and lots of empty spaces all around reserved for god knows what! Bring a lunch and get there early!
