Age is no barrier for visiting the National Science Center in Delhi for it has something for people of every age.
Right off the bat, a huge granite globe that spins catches your attention and you are drawn into it and keep gazing at it spins endlessly but this is not a place to spend time for an ocean of other surprises, no pun intended, and amazing galleries are awaiting you inside.

Here are some of the photo collages from the various exhibits.
Below is the gallery that has the interactive Zodiac sign as the main attraction.
HereтАЩs an electron microscope that I had always read about in the textbook or seen in videos. The multi-barrel cannon was new for me and I wondered how they fired so many shots at the same time - perhaps synchronized firing. Also seen is Rishi Sushrut performing surgery in India around 3500 BCE.

Large spacious exhibit halls deserve a special mention though these must be crowded during normal time. Some cool-looking musical instruments also caught my attention.

Interactive science instruments like the echo dish, fun mirror, infinite tunnel are big hits with kids and the elders alike.
