MOSI is where Tampa kids go to have their minds properly blown. The recipe: a hurricane you can stand inside, a planetarium that flies you to Saturn, and enough buttons, levers and build-it stations to occupy a small army of curious hands.
Disasterville is the can’t-miss: a whole mini-neighborhood testing families against Florida weather with simulators and science that sticks. The Saunders Planetarium cools everyone down with a trip through the night sky, while the outdoor science park adds a ropes course and rocket-age play. Camps and scout nights are local legend — book early.
Across from USF on Fowler Avenue, MOSI pairs with a campus-area lunch for an easy north Tampa day.
Questions going in, scientists coming out. That’s the MOSI trade.
