Telus Spark Science Centre, Science museum in Nose Creek Valley, Calgary, Canada
Telus Spark Science Centre is an educational facility in Calgary featuring interactive exhibits, multimedia presentations, and hands-on demonstrations. The venue contains multiple spaces designed for exploring science and learning through direct experience.
The facility started in 1967 as the Calgary Centennial Planetarium and transformed into a science centre in 1987. Moving to the current location in 2011 allowed for expansion and a broader educational focus.
The centre integrates Indigenous astronomical knowledge through its One Sky Experience in the Infinity Dome, connecting different perspectives on celestial observations. Visitors encounter how various cultures understand and interpret the stars and the universe.
The centre is accessible and offers activities suited to different age groups. Visitors should allow adequate time to explore the various interactive areas and check opening hours in advance.
RO5iE, Canada's first robot-controlled roller coaster, operates within the facility. This ride merges mechanical engineering with entertainment technology in an innovative way.
