Don't waste your money for the alien exhibit. It's only a bunch of posters and toy aliens on display. Seriously, it looked like stuff they found in their garages. I was so very disappointed and couldn't believe they actually had the nerve to charge additional money ($23 per ticket!!) for this event.
