What to do and see in Maryland, United States: The Best Science Museums
Maryland is known as “America in Miniature” because of its great variations in topography and culture. This makes it a perfect east coat travel destination for those who would like to experience a little bit of everything. From amusement parks, to beaches, to mountains and historical sites, there is plenty to see and do. Each region of Maryland provides its own unique and fun activities to do. If you're headed for some fun in the sun in Ocean City on its eastern coast, be sure not to miss the Ocean City Beach, the Boardwalk, or Trimper's Rides and Amusement Park for an all-ages fun experience. Central Maryland is home to a Six Flags theme park, the Annapolis Golf Club, and countless hubs of art and culture such as the African Art Museum and Annapolis Opera, Inc. Heading to western Maryland? It is perfect for lovers of nature and the outdoors, with the Washington Monument State Park, Wisp Resort ski slopes, and the spectacular Muddy Creek Falls.

Enter wondering and leave blessed. What at first appears to be an office space is actually the home of an impressively broad collection of items pertinent to the history of computing, past and present. Bob Roswell's excitement for his subject and his undeniable command of it left us feeling truly blessed that someone at his level would take such care and time to inform and even regale us with tales of tech (and "pre-tech"). We had a ball, and urge you not to pass up this opportunity for enrichment if you have interest in the subject, or a child who does.

This museum is clearly focused on activities attractive for kids and those that might entice children to become interested in science. It is located in the center of town, on the inner harbor, in a large, modern, three-story building with plenty of natural light. There are two large wings and multiple exhibits that promise a lot of hands-on activity for children (and adults). Several times a day, there are shows, conferences and interactive programs focused on making scientific principles understandable to the uninitiated. There are sections dedicated to the very young, to early teens, late teens and adults. The dinosaur exhibit is quite attractive and, in general, the displays are very well done. Consider a family membership: it helps the museum and it reduces you costs substantially.

We love space stuff. The visitor's center here is pretty small, and you could see everything in less than an hour, but it is very interesting. Small gift shop, no food.
