When I was a kid, this was The Place to take students for school field trips. Due to that experience, I was convinced science was the coolest thing in the world. Going to the Museum of Science and…

Meh. I was underwhelmed. Looks like a terrific museum for kids, but the adults in our party of two were both bored. And we're science people. We're even museum people. The three redeeming factors were…

This is a really cool museum for kids, but not for adults. I have been twice, and only to see special exhibits such as body words.

This is the best museum in Chicago! It's so good that you really need a whole day to get through it. The expanded U-boat exhibit is fantastic. Also interesting is the baby chick hatchery in the DNA…

My favorite part of this museum is the whispering hall...but only if you and your beloved are alone in the room. The baby chicks are also so nice to watch. Body Worlds was fascinating.

The museum hasn't been as quick in the last several years to keep up with emerging technology, so the technical exhibits are less than astounding. But when it comes to basic science they are great and it's...
