There, the free exposition "Russian Space: Creating the Future" is

of the building. Unique exhibits and VR-attractions, "Gagarin's
Capsule" and a friendly alien are waiting for guests. And every Saturday
at the exposition there are meetings with cosmonauts.

There is an
educational zone for children. Quests and quizzes, masterclasses and even an
express course "Become a Cosmonaut" are waiting for all those who are
ready to join the "Young Cosmonauts Squad". The kids can also chat
with an alien using an interactive screen and learn a lot of interesting things
about the Universe. Moreover, young guests will surely like the photo zone
"Gagarin's Capsule", and adults can also take memorable pictures.
And all those who are interested in space will probably enjoy looking at the samples of aircraft and space equipment, defence-industrial enterprises — there are more than a hundred exhibits. You can also study rare archival materials: photos, documents and videos, buy space souvenirs.
