Hands-on galleries
Launchpad - the Science Museum's most popular gallery - has been relocated and reinvented. Explore science and technology first-hand with 50 hands-on exhibits and shows. See yourself on the heat camera or listen to your voice echo down a 30 metre tube.
The Garden is an interactive gallery created especially for our very youngest visitors.
Object-rich galleries
