About this organization
Mission
Pacific Science Center ignites curiosity in every child and fuels a passion for discovery, experimentation, and critical thinking in all of us.
About
Pacific Science Center is Washington's leading institution for informal science learning for people of all ages. Guests can wander among tropical butterflies, touch live marine animals, and explore space. Popular attractions include: living exhibits, science on a sphere, tinker tank, tropical butterfly house, Puget Sound tide pool, dinosaurs, and Professor Wellbody's Academy of Health & Wellness. New experiences include what is reality, a collection of VR and AR experiences that allow our guests to immerse themselves in stories, and the hive - an incubator where we host local tech startups who interact with our guests. We developed exhibits on the importance of vaccination, local innovation focused on homelessness, and science on a sphere created rapid responses to seismic and atmospheric events, including volcanic activity, solar eclipse and summer wildfire smoke.
