Work on this major building addition concludes 4 years after the June 2022 groundbreaking, nearly doubling our educational exhibit space with 3 multi-level galleries and providing the permanent home of Endeavour exhibited in a towering "ready-for-launch" vertical display.

Construction of the Samuel Oschin Air and Space Center is complete! With building construction finished, thr California Science Center's team is moving in, with the installation of 100 aerospace artifacts and production of 100 new hands-on exhibits well underway.

Our animals are keeping it 💚 GREEN 💚 this St. Patrick's Day! 🍀 For tree-dwelling animals like our green tree pythons, splendid tree frogs, and prehensile-tailed skink, green is the best color to camouflage for safety or lie in wait for prey. 🌳 🐍 🐸 🦎
