A musical staircase. A bike-riding skeleton. A man in a birdcage getting struck by lightning. Is this place fun or what? With more than 550 interactive exhibits, New England's only 180-degree domed movie screen, the Charles Hayden Planetarium, the Theater of Electricity, a newly re-modeled T. Rex, and more, science comes alive at the Museum of Science. And on Friday nights, let your brain unwind at Science Street Café. If Einstein were alive, he'd hang out here. Boston is best known for its culture and its history. But for sheer electricity, you can't beat the Museum of Science. It's alive!
