The current Titanic Exhibit at the Science Museum of Minnesota is a real money maker for the museum, but a disappointment for the patrons. The low lights and background noises are more like a theatrical production than a scientific exhibit. The occasional old sock, broken piece of pottery or photo of a deceased crew member is no substitute for what... more

Ok, first things first, the Science museum has the OMNITHEATER, and it is nothing like a typical IMAX theater. The films are usually documentaries of the scientific, educational, natural world, etc. The films are a little pricey ($8.00) for 30-45 minute films, but this is one case where the experience is worth that, in my opinion. The Science Museum of... more

The permanent exhibits at the Science Museum are primarily for children. Everything is presented at a very basic level, and many exhibits are interactive. Adults will find little to enjoy, but the dinosaur fossils are interesting. There are however, visiting exhibits, such as bodyworks, that are very much for adults, so it pays to see what is on exhibit in... more

I have been to the Science Museum of Minnesota at least 8 times. I have never gotten tired of it. I once had a membership, and I would consider getting another one. I've been on a fieldtrip with all 1st graders and they loved it. I've gone with adults and teenagers. There is something interesting for everybody. I have gone... more

This museum has poor crowd control. The lines are too long & there is no customer service. The staff has little knowledge of the exhibits. Other museums in the twin cities area are much better--skip this one! more

It was our second time to the Science Museum in downtown St. Paul, Minnesota, and we were not disappointed. It doesn't matter where you live in the U.S., the trek to Minnesota is so well worth it. We had gone to the museum when it was just my husband and I years and years ago and really had an enjoyable,... more

We went in Aug 2006. I thought it was good and enjoyed it. My 7 year old liked it although it was not as fun as the children's museum of minnesota. We loved the omnitheater! We went to the Body Worlds traveling exhibit and it was overpriced and very crowded. I wouldn't see the Body Worlds exhibit again but I... more

The SMM is an incrediably amazing place to see! We visit it yearly and can spend a day there each time. (The first time I think we spent 2 days) It is a great educational (yet fun) experience for kids of all ages. The 3D show and omnitheater are a must see. They change certain exhibits a few times a... more
