The Illuminarium newest experience will take you out of this World!

SPACE: A Journey To The Moon & Beyond In an out-of-this-world immersive experience, take an extraordinary journey across the galaxy. Fly through a technicolor nebula, kick up dust on the moon, see Saturn’s rings up close, and weave through an asteroid belt. A giant leap into the unknown, SPACE will transport you to places you’ve only ever imagined.

Only 12 people have ever walked on the Moon, visitors are invited to join them at Illuminarium.  Guests will have the opportunity to take a giant leap into the unknown as they tour throughout the solar system, including a technicolor flight through the nebula, seeing planets and constellations at an extraordinary scale and weaving through an asteroid belt close to Saturn’s rings. Guests will travel through time with a history of the journey to space, then observe a futuristic colony, listen as astronauts prepare for blast-of and have a chance to personally kick up dust on the surface of the moon.

Guests who are 21 and over can also enjoy out-of this-world cocktails on the moon during SPACE: After Dark Sunday through Thursday starting at 7 p.m. 

SPACE Experience Guide

Lunar Approach

• Prepare for landing. Listen in on real space chatter between mission control and the first astronauts to ever set foot on the moon.

Low Lunar Orbit

• See the craters getting closer as the LEM (Lunar Excursion Module) separates from your spacecraft an begins to descend. You’re almost there!

Lunar Surface

• The astronauts drive in a lunar roving vehicle before flying home. Don’t forget to look down! Every step you take leaves an impression on the lunar surface

Moon Base

• Nobody knows exactly what the future will hold, but it could look something like this. Explore a fictional futuristic lunar base, complete with flying cars and air traffic

Constellations Break

Planetary Alignment

• How big is Jupiter? What is the temperature on Mercury? Put your knowledge of our solar system to the test as Voyager 2 and Cassini fly past.

The Kuiper Belt

• Mind your head to icy “space junk” that dates back to the formation of our solar system. If any of these rock-like objects fall out of orbit, they become meteors and comets.

Nebula

• Enter a breathtaking nebula. This is where stars are born. Look around in wonder and imagine that every single dot is a sun just like ours.

Human Achievement

• From the very first launch to the most modern advances in space travel, witness a fast-paced compilation of our most spectacular accomplishments as if you were there.
