Estação Ciência da Universidade de São Paulo, Science museum in Lapa district, São Paulo, Brazil
Estação Ciência occupies a former factory building with exhibition spaces dedicated to physics, biology, astronomy, mathematics, meteorology, geography, and geology.
The museum opened in June 1987 and operated until 2013, receiving over 400,000 visitors in 2006 before closing temporarily for renovations.
