Science Center reopens this week

The Macao Science Center (MSC) will reopen on September 29, although the repair works following the damage caused by Typhoon Hato are still incomplete.

“The center will reopen to the public on Friday, 29 September. As we are now striving to repair the aluminum cladding outside the Center and the facilities that were damaged by Typhoon Hato, visitors are advised to enter the Center through the temporary passageway and follow the instructions given by our staff on-site for safety reasons,” the MSC stated.

The center is organizing a full slate of activities to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival and the National Day holidays with the public. All visitors to the Exhibition Center, and the first 30 Macau residents to attend each Dome Show at the Planetarium, will enjoy free admission on October 1, National Day. The center will remain open on October 5, the day after Mid-Autumn Festival.

The “Think Brick – Play and Learn with LEGO Education” exhibition will be held on February 28. According to MSC, “this activity enhances parent-child interaction through building bricks together, and it also helps children and youths to develop interest in learning a variety of scientific knowledge.”

The planetarium will screen three to four additional dome shows from October 1 to 8, including “Aurora: Lights of Wonder”, “The LEGO Movie The Experience” and “The Little Prince”.
