Review:
The Maryland Science Center is Baltimore's premiere hands-on STEM museum, originally opened to the public in 1976.
The museum is credited with the revitalization of the city's Inner Harbor district, showcasing three floors of interactive exhibits that highlight concepts such as science, technology, nature, and human biology.
The center has been named as one of the nation's top family-friendly science centers by Parents Magazine and has been awarded a Best of Baltimore Award as the city's top place to visit with families.
A full-scale replica of state dinosaur Astrodon is on display at the museum, along with an exhibit detailing the lifespan of the Maryland blue crab and other native Chesapeake Bay wildlife. Other exhibits include a Bernoulli blower, a demonstration stage, and the NOAA-designed Science on a Sphere exhibit.
