ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers
Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions.

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.
