Join us on a museum trip to the Liberty Science Center (LSC), where you will have the chance to visit various science exhibitions and utilize numerous educational resources to explore the beauty of nature.

 

At LSC, you will get to witness the original Hoberman sphere designed by Chuck Hoberman and the largest planetarium in the Western Hemisphere - the Jennifer Chalsty Planetarium, featuring incredible 3D shows of the night sky and distant galaxies!

 

LSC is an interactive learning center of science and technology that intends to inspire the next generation of scientists and engineers, located at the Liberty State Park in Jersey City, New Jersey. It contains 12 museum exhibition halls, including a live animal collection with 110 species, giant aquariums, live simulcast surgeries, hurricane-and-tornado-force wind simulators, and many more interesting exhibits.

Here is your chance to participate in a 60-minute guided tour to view one of the most famous churches in NYC--- the Cathedral of St. John the Divine and its amazing architectural aesthetics, to hear about its history and cultural significance through in-depth story-telling.

From its design conception in 1888, to its opening just one week before the bombing of Pearl Harbor, you’ll leave with a greater understanding of the church’s historic importance in New York City.
