Perception Header

Visit the Perception area at Discovery Science Center.  The human perception area is the first area you will see once inside the Science Center.  Perception is the first step of science.  Human perception is how we process the information gathered through our senses - how something looks, sounds, smells, tastes and feels.  Lie on a bed of nails, figure out how to use a bowling ball to launch a tennis ball into the air, leave your mark on the pin wall, and more!
