Stuart, you have quite a good estimation: The Finnish Science Centre 
Heureka's science park Galilei is 9 700 m2 -- and sounds so much bigger 
in sq. footage: 104 400 ft2.

Not every sq. inch is exploited yet, far from it - which is wonderful. 
At the moment we are developing new exhibits with Indian science centres 
(NCSM), organising joint workshops annually. This summer's novelties 
will include a 300th birthday celebration of Linné. Instead of a flower 
bucket, he will get a time piece based on his own idea - a floral clock 
with some 24 plants.

Galilei gets generally better feedback than experiences inside. We run 
it from May until end of September, but are considering occasional 
winter activities.
