Impression 5 Science Center

Located about an hour away in Lansing, Impression 5 Science Center is a dynamic, interactive space for families to play, create, and challenge their understanding of science. “Impression 5” refers to the five senses and the way each sense is engaged during your visit to the Science Center! Our mission is to facilitate learners in scientific exploration through hands-on exhibits and participatory educational programming. In addition,The Planet Walk, a 5.5-mile journey, starts outside Impression 5 Science Center, winds along the River Trail and ends at Abrams Planetarium on Michigan State University's campus. Enjoy a beautiful stroll and, with each footstep demonstrating one million miles, experience a scaled representation of our solar system!
