Science World is a hands-on science museum in Vancouver housed in a gleaming geodesic dome built for the 1986 world's fair at the head of False Creek. Its glowing sphere, ringed with lights at night, has become a signature feature of the city skyline reflected in the water. Inside, interactive galleries and a large-format theatre explore physics, biology, sound and the natural world for visitors of all ages. Live demonstrations and rotating exhibitions make it a popular family destination in the city.
