OUR VISION:
To educate, inspire and evoke a sense of wonder about the Universe, our planet and space exploration.

OUR MISSION:
Get a Clear View of Space at the H.R. MacMillan Space Centre!

The H.R. MacMillan Space Centre is Canada 's leading space learning centre. It is a non-profit community resource that brings the wonders of space to Earth, while providing a personal sense of ongoing discovery. Through innovative programming, exhibits and activities, our goal is to inspire sustained interest in the fields of earth science, space science and astronomy from a Canadian perspective.

We encourage you to visit us for a day in space. The Space Centre is focused on providing both visitors and residents of Vancouver with the best services possible, which means offering a dynamic line up of engaging programs for all ages. Join us to experience what it feels like to travel through space with B.C's First Virtual Voyages Full- Motion Simulator. Enjoy a multimedia Planetarium Show in which Harold, our star projector, guides you through the night sky, the planets and our solar system using current space imagery. Continue your cosmic experience with a live presentation in Ground Station Canada and explore the intriguing experiments of Rocket Lab or Colour of Fire. And finally, highlight your visit with the interactivity of the Cosmic Courtyard Exhibit Gallery…all in ONE day!

Located in the heart of Vanier Park, the Space Centre is easily accessible and also, boasts an epic view of the Coast Mountains and the city of Vancouver.
