I wouldn't think they would charge. If they did, they would need/should lower the admission price because that would be taking an experience away. That said, I'm sure it will baked into future admission price increases.
The other thing is they are running shows every hour from 10-4, Monday through Friday.

I would think it would have to be free to fill those seats for that many shows. The only thing they might charge for is if they have special showings and viewings.
Well the reason I ask is because it IS an extra fee at pretty much every other museum I go too and the price is always stupid high for thing. I never pay for it because it just pisses me off. Houston is my most recent one that i said "no" to. I'm extremely happy to see that OKC didn't do the same thing. It does beg the question of if the sponsorship will be enough to keep it operating or if it will end up getting worn down from lack of funding though.
I have not been in yet, but i do not think that this is accurate. The "new" gear is several years old already. Granted, decades newer than what was in there before with the mechanical monster. It was a big improvement over what was there before for sure. But it also wasn't exactly awe inspiring. It was basically a couple of projectors used to display canned "spacey" scenes through the proper lens to make it curve on the dome. From my understanding of the new space, it's supposed to be a lot more "experience" with a proper sound system with a proper "show". The team running the old show did a good job with what they had. Often those teenagers made it more interesting than some of the older staff too, so I am in no way trying to take things away from them. But i do not think it's accurate to say that they are just moving the projectors from one room to the other.
Now that's cool! Nice job, Pete!
Back to red huh, cool. I always liked it more when it stood out like that.
Faded blue was appropriate for its abandon state it was in. Great to see the red back!
The original Omnidome was painted red when it opened in 2000. They painted it blue during the rebranding. To me, having your marquee attraction standout makes Science look 'more fun' to kids.

I really wish they would have built a new world class science complex downtown and turned this current facility into one of the best Aviation Musuems in the world.
