Scienceworks (Museums Victoria)

10 Best Museums in Melbourne | Condé Nast Traveler

"As its name implies, ScienceWorks touches upon robotics, space, electricity, technology, climate science, and every other aspect of the modern world; topics are divided into themes and age groups. But don’t expect everything to be locked inside glass cases—you can conduct experiments, play interactive games, and participate in workshops. There are activities for visitors of all ages, including a program for kids under five, and plenty for adults who are kids at heart. ScienceWorks’ other draw is the Melbourne Planetarium, with a 52-foot domed ceiling, reclining seats, and surround sound paired with 30-minute feature films that focus on a particular astronomical theme." - Carrie Hutchinson
