When open the centre combined a "
Science Center, Planetarium, Dinosaur Museum and other science stuff, (like a full-size walk-thru Space Shuttle Replica) with a whole range of outdoor activities which challenge the mind as much as the body".
The Science Centre was located inside the Space Shuttle Replica and contained "
many of the traditional hands-on exhibits found in most science centers and quite a few unique ones. How about an actual drag racer where you sit inside the cockpit and test your driving reflexes against the timer and the drag race Christmas Tree!! Don't miss the giant soap bubble you can actually stand in; the room where you can leave your shadow stuck to the wall; or the anti-gravity wall where you can demonstrate the illusion of weightlessness. All of these challenges described above, and the dozens of others, are a really neat way to learn about scientific principles while having fun doing it.".
The Recycled Planetarium, originally located at the University of Prince Edward Island, is housed "
inside a 50-foot aluminum geodesic dome. The actual theatre has a 30-foot dome screen and is equipped with 52 uni-directional seats. The main star projector is a Spitz A3P ( as is common with most medium size planetariums). Six computers controlled, primary show projectors, an equal number of panorama projectors, and an assortment of special effects units complete the inventory of show equipment. A sound, light, & laser show is planned for the future as is a local interest show featuring history, folklore and a whimsical tour of the "Island" at night.
As well, the park had
Many Other interesting exhibits and displays to offer. This was an ambitious project, designed and built by the owners, and an exciting place for kids of all ages to visit, yet managed to fall victim to the economics of 2008, when it closed its doors for the last time. It had managed to continue in operation for about 20 years before closing.
