If you have always wanted to visit the moon (or Mars or Pluto), it is now as easy as getting in the car! The many entertaining and interactive exhibitions at the Canberra Space Centre include seeing what astronauts eat, checking your weight on the Moon, or watching a film in the miniature theatre. This station is one of only three of its kind in the world and communicates with interplanetary spacecraft. Several radio antennas circle the complex, each one as large as the surrounding hills and just as impressive. Admission: Free.
