The Discovery Center was scheduled to become open to the public last summer, but it was delayed until today due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Discovery Center features a variety of activities for children to enjoy, including a miniature city with a fire station, theater stage, veterinary and medical clinics. There is an educational area that includes a flight simulator, wind turbine energy space, microscope for space adventures, wind tunnel, magnet wall, and a construction room.
