General Comments

Whilst waiting in the foyer, you can see the rockets over the cafe area and a sputnik suspended overhead, things are looking good! You enter into a visually stimulating area and after strolling around for five minutes it suddenly dawns on you, there's nothing here! The cinema can be good but the exhibits are dull and limited. If you have travelled any distance no doubt you would drag the trip out but really it can all be done in an hour. They have even started charging to park cars outside now, ouch! If you have never been to the Science Museum in London, there is a far better range of Space Exhibits there, plus a huge museum full of loads of interactive stuff that will fill many days, plus there's the Natural History Museum next door, plus its free, plus its not in some run down area of grotty Leicester.
