Hours & Admission
Guided by the recommendations of state, city and county public health officials and the input from employees and members, the Fleet Science Center has a plan to keep our employees, volunteers and visitors safe.

What’s playing in the Heikoff Giant Dome Theater?
It is a land of mystery and yet what happens here affects every single one of us. With never-before seen footage, Antarctica brings audiences to the farthest reaches of this wild and majestic continent. Step off the beaten path with Into America’s Wild, a visually stunning cross-country adventure into the hidden wonders of the natural world. Follow the majestic, Australian green sea turtle Bunji, as she swims thousands of miles across the open ocean and has wild encounters in Turtle Odyssey.
