It almost make you waqnt to take out your 7-iron when you first see it. For when it's lit up at night, the silver geodesic globe of Science World looks like a giant dimpled golf ball. Located on the eastern edge of False Creek, near Chinatown, inside are some of the most wonderful hands-on exhibits that have ever turned an adult into a child. There are hands-on science exhibits where you can play the piano with your toes, create a cyclone, or take a picture of your shadow. The Music Machines Gallery allows you to play in booths filled with keyboards, drum pads, and an assortment of electronics. The centrepiece and biggest draw, of course, is the 400 seat OMNIMAX Theater where the audience is surrounded with huge images on the five-storied, domed screen and engulfed in wrap-around sound.
