Blast off!

Blast off to the best mini golf game ever at Rocket Park on the grounds of the New York Hall of Science, now through October.

The game reveals that the same laws of motion and gravity that guide the path of a spaceship control the motion of golf balls here on Earth. In this nine-hole miniature golf course, players will explore key science concepts such as propulsion, gravity, escape velocity, launch window, gravitational assist, and more. Recommended for ages 6 and older.

Rocket Park Mini Golf, daily through October. Hours are Monday through Friday, 9:30 am to 5 pm, and Saturday and Sundays, 10 am to 6 pm. Tickets are $6 ($5 members) plus general admission to the hall.
