 MOSH (lower left) in front of Two Prudential Plaza by noidiotsplease Along the Southbank Riverwalk in downtown Jacksonville you'll find the Museum of Science in History or "MOSH" as the locals call it. In addition to featuring dinosaurs and other special interest or holiday exhibits, MOSH can be described as three kinds of attraction areas under one roof. First off, the main collection of exhibits focus on science and history topics of interest or importance to the nature, early settlements and modern development of Jacksonville, such as manatees, the Timucuan Indians and historic riverboats sunk during the Civil War. The museum's second main component is the Alexander Brest Planetarium. Here, you can learn about the wonders of the night sky, like where to find constellations and planets. The planetarium is also used from time to time for special nighttime events like Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd laser light shows The third area is mainly of interest to children. This is where they can interact with a variety of hands-on science experiments dealing with topics such as electricity, optical illusions, and shadows, among others.

This is a very nice museum for the kids. Great place to go on a hot or rainy day. They especially loved the play room in the lobby, and the movie in the planetarium. Also great is the laser light shows at night. They have different music, I've seen Aerosmith and Pink Floyd. You sit in the planetarium and wear 3D glasses, and while the music plays, they show different lasers on the screen. it's pretty cool, and they have one for kids during the day, too.
