Point
- There are eight different areas in the museum, including the "space center" and the "global village." At the "space center," marvel at models showing the Saturn V launch and other spacecraft. The "global village" features miniature versions of famous landmarks from around the world. At the "kansai international airport" area, which is especially popular among visitors, observe model airplanes landing and taking off realistically from up close. The shop creates and sells 3D figurines, so visitors can even get their hands on figurines of themselves!
