The Museum of Science and Industry

Today I visited the Museum of Science and Industry. I think overall I would say people should visit it if they have time, there are definitely some interesting things there. However, think Science World, although even more 'kiddy' (if that's possible), except for a few more adult exhibits, like the U-boat. The fighter planes from WWII and the aforementioned sub are worth seeing, but won't take much of your time. Otherwise, you could probably skip a lot of the rest. Luckily I went on the day it's free, but if I had paid I think I would be a little annoyed.

Some interesting things I found. First, from the beginning of the Science gallery:


The submarine was cool - it was captured by the Americans off the coast of N. Africa. The only thing I will say about the exhibit was that it really was so patriotic, it was almost like a cheerleading display for the US. If you ignored all the promotional videos for the US Navy and the reenactments, you could overlook that:


Some info about the US Navy, it was a little amusing:


My plane pics weren't too good - the lighting was terrible. There was a Stuke and Spitfire. Apparently, the Stuka is only one of two left in the world. So that was cool.
