Great little gem of a museum in the heart of Abilene. Exhibits are free, but a donation is recommended. Great place to spend an afternoon and learn about the Titanic (did you know they guy who found it lived in Abilene?), Israel, The Ark and so much more. They have a few animals that are hands on and a cool mini sandbox for the kids. They also have a summer camp that my son loved. They even had the kids dig for fossils. They offer so much information, you wont have time to do everything. Its a great way to keep the kids entertained without all the money. Bonus fact: they have a Woolly Mammoth tooth, youll have to check out. Be prepared, you will have to plan multiple trips!

Kathy was very nice and knowledgable as well as the other staff! Before we went I was looking online for the cost, and couldnt find one because there is No fee to enter but they do accept donations. They had animals and fun activities for the kids. It was a great place to visit!

A random Wednesday outing lead us to this place and it was an awesome experience for my boys and my niece! I highly recommend going there, a sweet lady, Marsha, was very informative and kept my kids intrigued! They talked about Discovery Center all the way home! So many things they enjoyed about this museum. We had an enjoyable afternoon!

One of the BEST museums weve been to. Mr. Paul was a very nice and informative tour guide. Extremely kid friendly, we took our 4 kids 8 years and under and they had a blast. Its fun for all ages! We will be a regular visitor from here on out! GOD IS GOOD!

This a great place to go and learn about Creation, Israel, and the Titanic.The people are super friendly and give out great information on any thing you have questions about. They have short movies on information about Creation, Israel, and the Titanic. The Dinasour fossils are so neat. The scrolls that had writing on deer skin were Amazing, as well as the replica of the Ark of the Covenant.They have a parrot that talks, and is so incredibly smart. A robot that tells how old you are - down to the seconds, And gives you a print out of it, and another one that tells you the meaning of your name. A HUGE chair for you to take your picture by.And a book store to buy T-shirts or books and things for kids. All in all a great place to go with family, friends, or just to get away from your same old routine.My son and I really enjoyed it, and thought it was very informational. Im so glad we have it Abilene!!

Its a tragedy that this place is being sold as a scientific museum. I feel sorry for the kids and adults that are taught this garbage. DO NOT GO HERE! Go to a real museum!

I am a Christian and also a scientist, the outlandish remarks that are aired over the radio have turned me against this facility and Ive never had the chance to actually go. Whoever resides over this type of attacking by means of advertising needs to realize theyre stooping to levels of non believers by using such absolute igborance and hate. Stating things such as evolution is a lie by Charlie Darwin Then explain gene expression through different generations, how is that explained other than evolution? Realize understanding evolution is real doesnt mean admitting God isnt, the point of science is to understand the natural world THAT GOD MADE.

So many things to learn, great for scouts, and students to learn new things and be close to God. Space, science, technology, even knowledge of the Bible, and Titanic. Friendly people and the admission is donation.

The Discovery Center is a wonderful place for both Adults and children. The displays are outdtanding! A musem of historical facts of the Titanic, of Giants, and of the Nation of Israel. Also, the live creatures are sure to attract children. No set cost, but a donation box is by the door.

Great peopleGreat placeI used to be apart of the brainwashed masses believing that evolution could be a possibility.In my own research I found that it takes more faith and imagination to believe in evolution then the simple fact we do have a Creator.Having a father who taught HS science who also believed in creation showed me the huge gaps and flaws in evolution and their dating processes. In the right conditions scientists fossilized a turkey in less than a year. There are trees standing straight up within the layers that prove a great flood took place all over the world. Its totally possible the earth could be younger than it is. Ive been researching giants for years besides the accounts in the bible there are cultures all over the globe that document giants. There has been a huge cover up especially here in North America!! Im so blessed to have had my eyes opened to the Truth of whats really going on and pulling my head out of the box of what the systems of the world want me to think and believe.Bc those systems are failing us.

The idea that this is on display for people to accept as fact is appalling. Poisoning the minds of children and adults alike with pesudoscience portrayed as fact by a bunch of nonscientists claiming superiority behind their religion is a sad testament to the ignorance of people. The Bible has no place nor qualifications to be considered anything close to scientific.

Take your kids to a real museum, not this brainwashing facility. Evolution has been scientifically proven, yet its laughed at here as false science.

Review №33

The people were friendly and down to Earth. The science was more of pseudoscience that was caused via tunnel vision through loose and strict biblical interpretations of text. There were many ludicrous claims such as: giants exist, evolution is bogus, the Earth is 4,800 years old, the Titanic was hated by god, homosexuality is terrible for humanity, and Harry Potter is a gateway drug to Satanism. I find irony in the fact that their motto is: Critical thinkers ask tough questions. If youre into religious ignorance that uses fallacies to support their agenda, this is the place for you.
