Goa Science Centre

Goa Science Centre, Science museum in Miramar, India.

Goa Science Centre is a science museum on New Marine Highway in Miramar, Panjim, a joint project of India's National Council of Science Museums and Goa's Department of Science Technology & Environment. It stands on 5 acres of land provided by the Government of Goa, with an outdoor park of exotic flowers where large physics exhibits let visitors lift themselves using pulleys and ropes. Inside are two thematic galleries, Fun Science and Science of Oceans, plus a 140-seat air-conditioned auditorium.

The Goa Science Centre is a joint project of India's National Council of Science Museums and Goa's Department of Science, Technology & Environment. The Government of Goa provided the 5-acre site on New Marine Highway in Miramar, Panjim, where the museum now stands. The sources consulted give no founding date, so none is stated here.

The centre's name is shared with its Tamil name, Kovaa Ariviyal Maiyam, used by Tamil-speaking visitors. Daily science shows for young children and the Taramandal show are regular public programmes, alongside science demonstration lectures and film screenings in the 140-seat auditorium. The Cyberlab introduces information technology to the general public.

The centre sits on New Marine Highway at Miramar, about 300 m from Miramar Circle and 5 km from Kadamba bus stand in Panjim; buses run from Panjim bus stand to Miramar Circle. It is open daily except Holi and Diwali, 09:30 to 18:00, with tickets issued until 17:30. Planetarium shows run at 11:00, 13:00, 15:00 and 17:00, 3-D films at 10:30, 12:30, 14:30 and 16:30; times can change, so confirm before visiting.

The centre's two indoor galleries are Fun Science and Science of Oceans; the second covers the ocean environment and its inhabitants. A 140-seat air-conditioned auditorium hosts science film shows and multimedia presentations, and the Cyberlab is a multimedia computer lab built to spread IT awareness among the public.
