Boston's Museum of Science

Looks like a lot of fun. I've always made a point o\to go to the Ontario Science Center (http://www.ontariosciencecentre.ca/) anytime I get back East to Toronto

They didn't even mention the world's largest Van de Graaff generator! They do regular "lightning" shows with it. The MoS is pretty awesome, and after the Larry Summers women-in-science brouhaha a few years ago they had a couple of days where women got in for free. That's the last time I went; I've since moved away from that fair city.

This video was really exciting to watch! I really think going to museums like this one really make people enjoy science instead of the boring stuff like trying to memorize the periodic table for a test they have that week. This way people can really experience science first hand and plus the gift shop just puts the icing on the cake!
