Spanning from the 5th floor to the 2nd basement, the museum is designed like a giant spaceship, offering a journey through the fun of space and science. Each floor features various exhibits under different themes, such as the "Captain's Room" where you can experience the mysteries of space, and the "Space Training Room" where you can feel like an astronaut with various exhibits.

The exhibits include a space simulator where you can experience piloting a spaceship, "Lunar Jump" and "Spatial Transfer Unit" where you can play and ride, focusing on participatory experiences. Additionally, there are "Science Shows" using simple tools for scientific experiments and science craft workshops for easy crafting available on Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays.

Moreover, the planetarium on the first floor projects a realistic starry sky onto a 23m diameter dome, offering powerful experiences suitable for both adults and children. The daily starry sky explanation by the staff is also popular.
