The Discovery Center is a great experience with so many interesting artifacts. One of the best things is the knowledgeable volunteers who run the programs. Some of them really worked on the Apollo, Space Shuttle, and ISS programs. If you can catch it they have some pretty amazing programs with astronauts and also bring in great tracking exhibits. This attraction is best suited for upper elementary school students through adults but they are always coming up with new things and seem driven to meet the needs of their visitors. With so much Space stuff happening in Colorado Springs this is the only place you can see any of it happening. Keep up the good work Space Foundation!…

It's funny to me that one of the best attractions in the Colorado Springs area, the Space Foundation, is also one of its least known. It has AMAZING presentations, including holograms, and offers such a great experience, for low admission prices ($10 for adults, $5 for kids), that it should be packed, but when you go there, most times you have the run of the place. Sometimes you'll see field trips from schools, but the lack of tourist walk ins is staggering, to me anyway. This is truly a hidden gem of Colorado Springs, and that's from me, a local that has lived here for over 30 years. This place is fantastic! And it's right off of Garden of the Gods road, so if you get a chance, GO!!!…

A large group of us catered a dinner at the Center. We were able to tour the museum before dinner and had a private showing of the Planets presentation. Anyone interested in space travel or astronauts would love the exhibits.

The Space Foundation is a nice place to take kids 5-15 yrs. There are many interactive parts, hands on activities, a planet talk that is very good and the kids can even drive a remote Mars vehicle! All three of my kids found things they really enjoyed and the price can't be beat!
