In October, my Mother and I went to the San Jose Tech Museum. Once there, we went to the Star Wars: Where Science Meets Imagination exhibition. We got our tickets for $22. $22! A little expensive for museum tickets, but our tickets were for the actual museum and the exhibition. We saw different ships, models, and a gun and Light Saber display. In the exhibit, there were movies on how technology was used to create ships to move like the Millennium Falcon and the Luke's Land Speeder. There were different experiments in there for kids to play with. One was about a Maglev train and how it works. We were able to build a Maglev train out of Legos. That was pretty cool.  After that, I saw a probe droid model.  One of the coolest things was a robot that senses your movement! How cool was that?  My mom liked the exhibit about Prosthetics there was an interactive activity for that. It was pretty cool. 

I recommend this exhibit to anyone who likes Star Wars, or anyone who likes Science because of the experiments.  
Its in San Jose, though, so you have to plan. The Exhibit has been extended through March 23, 2014. YOU'RE RUNNING OUT OF TIME!!!!!!

My son is a little young to be a Star Wars fan, but he could have spent all day at the mag lev train hands on exhibit! I'm glad you had such a good time & thank you for sharing your thoughts.
