Built initially as a pavilion for the 1964 World's Fair, the New
York Hall of Science is now New York City's hands-on science and
technology center. Since 1986, NYSCI has served more than five
million children, parents and teachers. NYSCI's mission is to
convey the excitement and understanding of science and technology
to children, families, teachers and others by galvanizing their
curiosity and offering them creative, participatory ways to learn.
NYSCI features the largest collection of hands-on science exhibits
in New York City. Visitors of all ages can explore over 450
interactive exhibits.
