Additional Information
Introduction
Chicago's Museum of Science and Industry is the biggest science historical center in the Western side of the equator, lodging tremendous displays that let guests find out about a scope of points by encountering them firsthand. Jump on the Pioneer Zephyr, the main diesel-controlled stainless-steel train; slide into a completely reproduced mine pole to figure out how a sump pump functions; and get very close with monstrous homestead machines. For a more active approach, the Live Science Experiences carry guests into the classroom by taking care of science issues in a public domain. Admirers of science and innovation should discover this the feature of any Chicago trip.

I thought it was amazing specially the science there is so much to do your kids will love it!
An absolute wonderful must-see museum in Chicago. There is so much to see and do here that you could truly spends days here. The big downside here is the distance from the Loop, so be prepared for an expensive Uber and a good drive.
The Museum of Science and Industry is a Chicago icon, and its permanent exhibits are awesome, with tons of rotating ones as well; one of the current rotating exhibits is a really interesting one about the history of nuclear weapons.
Great way to learn about science and everything behind it all! It also teachers about the history of many things and has lots of exhibits to visit and see!
