About Scitech

Leave Earth behind and travel into space for an experience unlike any other. Do you have what it takes to survive in a completely different environment?
Scitech’s Destination Mars exhibition will challenge visitors to explore, adapt, and survive on Mars.
Before arriving at the planet, visitors will need to successfully pack the right equipment for the voyage, select the perfect crew and learn about the surrounding planets in the solar system.
The exhibition engages visitors with exciting hands-on and full-body experiences such as driving a 4-D Surface Exploration Vehicle, flying a virtual drone to solve environmental issues and experiencing G-force in the spinning capsule.
