If No, then you should definitely visit Hyderabad, to visit one of the finest museum.

India’s first space museum is inaugurated in Hyderabad on 26th July 2019, by Honorable Governor of Telangana.

I visited the museum just before the pandemic in the month of February.

It is collaboration between The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) and B M Birla science center.

ISRO is giving some 65 models of various spacecrafts, satellites and rockets right up to the Mangalyaan. These are in large size.

The giant GSLV Rocket which is approximately 60 feet tall.

It was astonishing view from the top, You feel like standing next to rocket :smile:

This Museum exhibits scale models of Indian launch vehicles GSLV Mark III, GSLV Mark II and PSLV, Chandrayaan-I, Mars Orbiter Spacecraft, APPLE, Aryabhata, Bhaskara, Rohini RS-1 and also a model of International Space Station (ISS)

Below are the pictures of revolutions of space station, History behind it along with time period, it gives you detailed explanation.

Here is the moon, Have you ever thought moon will have rough surface, Yes, Moon has rough surface and it not smooth as we always imagine.

There is much to explore and learn about space museum, I just uploaded few pictures which I took. do explore Space museum for your next visit.

It was great experience for me to visit Space museum and to learn about space stations ,I have spent whole day in Birla science Museum, soon am going to share my experience in science museum as well.

Location : B.M. Birla Science Museum, Hyderabad, India

Fees - 150/- per head.

Thank you.

साधारणपणे संपूर्ण संग्रहालय पाहण्यासाठी किती वेळ लागतो? तसेच या ठिकाणी मिशन कंट्रोल सेंटर ची पण प्रतिकृती आहे का?

There is Science museum and Planetorium ( Planetorium is something which has 3D view, you will feel like, you are standing in the galaxy and observe closely each planet. it’s great feeling all together, for Planetorium you will have to pay extra charge of Rs. 250/- I guess But, price is worth, you will definitely enjoy this place.

Thank you @Arati for sharing such wonderful information about the space museum.

Just as when I started thinking I have seen all in Hyderabad, now this new addition. Superb

India needed a spae museum for a long time as there are plenty of planetariums and aerospace museums all over the country in various cities.

I have visited one space museum in Wichita, but need to go back t Hyderabad to see the new museum.

Does this museum in Hyderabad also have a dome theatre to watch a film about space? like they have in planetariums? If not then this will be a great addition.

Anyway, once again thanks for the detailed information and the pictures.

Is this the correct location of the space museum?

Ohh the space museum in witchita looks awesome @TusharSuradkar . Here in Hyderabad Space museum will find different rockets and space models. There is Science museum as well, Nearly 50 science live experiments. am soon going to write article about it.

Yup it has dome theatre. it plays for 60 minutes. But has specific timings, in day only three times. there is Aqua 3D show , which plays for 30 minutes. it also has timings. In fact, once you enter the Birla Museum there is much more to explore.

Yup, the link which you have mentioned is correct and 10 minutes away from Birla Temple.
