Tenerife is a global player in the study of stars and in recognition the museum is home to the only planetarium on the island. Even if you've been to one before the science of astronomy is continually evolving so there is always something new to get the grey cells pondering: lest we forget, space is the final frontier!

So if you are looking for something to take you to another world and have fun along the way, the Museum of Science and the Cosmos is the place to be.
