Fodor's Expert Review MOXI–The Wolf Museum of Exploration and Innovation
It took more than two decades of unrelenting community advocacy to develop this exceptional science hub, which opened in early 2017 in a three-story, Spanish-Mediterranean building next to the train station and a block from Stearns Wharf and the beach. The 70-plus interactive exhibits—devoted to science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics (STEAM)—are integrated so curious visitors of all ages can explore seven themed areas (called tracks).
In the Speed Track, build a model car and race it against two others on a test track—then use the collected data to reconfigure your car for improved performance.
