Fun Freetime - Blast Off Into Summer Fun at WonderWorks Myrtle Beach!

 Kids and adults alike are intrigued by space and its exploration. This summer, WonderWorks is inviting guests to enjoy an out-of-this-world vacation by immersing themselves in the upside-down house’s amazing Space Discovery Zone. With fun, hands-on activities and plenty of educational information, the exhibit area provides something for guests of all ages and will help them take “one giant leap for mankind” in honor of National Space Exploration Day on July 20th.

 

“The first moon landing was such an important day in history, so we’re excited to celebrate all of humanity's remarkable achievements in space exploration!” said Kaitlin Barnes, education sales manager at WonderWorks Myrtle Beach. “Our Space Zone is every space fan’s dream come true.” 

 

The Space Discovery Zone at WonderWorks Myrtle Beach is the perfect place to celebrate National Space Exploration Day, observed on July 20 each year to commemorate the anniversary of the moon landing. It provides an opportunity to explore the wonders of the galaxy and get a first-hand experience in what it’s like to be an astronaut. Guests can climb into a replica EVA space suit and learn how they keep astronauts safe during space travel. There is also an Astronaut Training Challenge that thrill seekers will not want to miss: step into a four-person gyroscope that spins and simulates what it is like to be in outer space, providing a weightless feeling. 

 

Additionally, guests can hop into a replica Project Mercury capsule, try their hand at flying a space shuttle, go on a mission to Mars, explore the surface of the moon, and engage in other interactive simulator exhibits throughout the section. The Space Discovery Zone is filled with easy-to-understand educational material, helping to teach young minds about the wonders of space exploration. Be sure to bring your cameras for some cosmic photo spots!

 

The Space Discovery Zone is one of six Wonder Zones inside WonderWorks focusing on specific areas of interactive fun and learning opportunities. The others include the Extreme Weather Zone, Physical Challenge Zone, Light and Sound Zone, Imagination Lab, and the Wonder Art Gallery. Exploring each zone provides guests with a range of STEAM-based (science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics) fun and hands-on experiences.

 

"Summer is in full swing here in Myrtle Beach! Be sure to head our way when you're looking for an epic birthday party, an educational outing, or a way to escape the heat. There's something of interest for everyone inside!” said Robert Stinnett, general manager at WonderWorks Myrtle Beach.

There are three unique party packages to choose from, each with an hour in a private party room, delicious pizza made in-house, and unlimited time to explore the four floors of exhibits throughout WonderWorks.
