Fort Discovery

The National Science Center's Fort Discovery, generally known as Fort Discovery, was a 128,000-square-foot (11,900 m2), children's science exhibition center and museum located in downtown Augusta, Georgia, at Riverwalk Augusta.

It featured several rides such as a high-wire bicycle, the human gyroscope, and space Moon walk, each demonstrating a fundamental concept of physics.

In late 2003, the state cut off funds to the center and Fort Discovery was at danger of closing.

National Science Center relocated to Washington, D.C. after Fort Discovery closed permanently on December 31, 2010.
