Discovery Museum of Sacramento ­ Science & Space Center
(Sights & Activities - History Museums)
3615 Auburn Blvd
Sacramento CA 95821
916-575-3941
Description:
This edifying museum features a range of thought-provoking scientific exhibits, most of which are interactive. A nature trail that winds through 14 acres is also a child-friendly draw, and kids can expect to encounter living creatures on their excursions. Plus, a discovery room brings insects, turtles, and the like close-up. A planetarium figures in as part of the complex as well, and simulated space missions are much-loved experiences. A third aspect of the facility (at a separate location) addresses Sacramento history and the Gold Rush.
