I visited the Montreal Cosmodome this week while on vacation.

It's home to a Space Camp facility, 3 hour long interactive adventures and a (sadly) very lacking space flight history exhibit.

Not knowing anything about the facility before we arrived, I was hoping to learn about the Canadian Space Agency and their astronaut corps. Unfortunately, the only mentions of Canada's achievements were of science packages aboard unmanned probes, contributions to the ISS, and the shuttle's Canadarm.

Even the gift shop was rather lacking and mostly geared towards kids.

Over all, I found it to be family friendly, but with very basic info on the topic.

Does anyone knows if there was something I missed?

All times are CT (US)
