Orlando Science Center

Last Sunday, the Central Florida TBEX had their kick-off meeting at the Orlando Science Center. The OSC is a great place to spend a day with family learning about the world we live in. The OSC features skywatching the first and third Saturdays of each month from the Crosby Observatory.

NatureWorks offers a glimpse of cypress swamp habitat with live alligators, turtles and a mangrove system.

Go back in time at DinoDigs and see fossil replica displays of a Tyrannosaurus Rex and its likely prey the Edmontosaurus Annectens and a few others.
Kids and families will find plenty to do at the science center. There are flight simulators, hands-on exhibits about electricity, sound, light and magnetism, even a 70′ pinewood derby track at the interactive Science Park exhibit.
