Bring the three stages of science—ask, test, repeat—to life with your own experiments in Innovation Station! Here you can cut, connect, craft, combine, construct and compare using real tools, a multitude of materials and your own creativity.

Design a sail and test it against the wind. Make a crazy maze on the Ball Fall Wall, where gravity powers the race to the finish. Cross a chasm with a bridge you’ve built then pile on weight to see whether it holds. If at first you don’t succeed, this is a place where you can try, try, try again until you’re satisfied with your solution!

Innovation Station is a new experience each time you visit, with rotating challenges and ever-changing materials, and it’s a great place to create collaborative with family and friends. Be brave, dream big and stay focused—because your next idea might be the best one yet!
