This place is very nice. Our kids had a good time exploring all of the exhibits (and there are a few interactive ones). Ot was a good place to spend 2 hours and learn something at the same time.
Great little science center. I love the telescope
Someone needs to teach....
My grandsons and I truly enjoyed the exhibits. The layout is very friendly: a second elevator would be nice for all the people pushing strollers. We will return: it is hoped that management does take a serious step to show appreciation for their paid employees then maybe they will :)
The paid employees are obviously not respected by their employer because from the front counter, the science stations (manned by teenagers) to the cafe personnel not a single smile, thank you or courtesy comment. The employees are responding to either the lack of guidance by management or the fact that management does not appreciate their efforts: in either case it is not the face that Fernbank should be offering. The ONLY smiles and Happy comments came from the ticket taking volunteers: they were exceptionally friendly, offering suggestions and directions without having to inquiry.
A very respectable place! Lots of scientific displays including the Apollo 6 Command Module. The museum is free and the planetarium is extremely cheap! Only $7 for adults and $3 for children, although they didn't even charge me for my son. The show is well worth viewing and the staff is very polite and informational. I'd recommend it to anyone.
Drove all the way from Macon, GA. Arrived at 8:13pm for the observation at 9pm. Only to be told they will be no showing due to weather. There was no rain and little clouds. Ask of we can watch the show that just started and was told we couldn't, cause they didn't won't to disturb the astronomers. I'm very upset, and will not refer my family n friends. We drove an 1hr and 40 mins to do nothing. Staff not willing to assist, with the showing.
One final point, ordering tickets on line does not benefit the customer. Tickets purchased on line state they can be picked up at Will Call: there is no Will Call. Ticket-holders that purchased on line must stand in the same line as the people that have not yet purchased tickets. This does not save any time at the counter.
