Lowell Observatory

About
Observatory • Indoor & Outdoor • Admission Required
The place where Pluto was discovered — and yes, your kids will think that's awesome. The new Marley Foundation Astronomy Discovery Center has interactive exhibits, planetarium shows, constellation tours, and telescope viewing sessions. It's a hands-on, curiosity-driven experience that works especially well for kids who like asking "why." A must-visit for families.
