Science North is an interactive science museum in Greater Sudbury, Ontario, Canada.

The complex, which is Northern Ontario's most popular tourist attraction, consists of two snowflake-shaped buildings on the southwestern shore of Ramsey Lake, just south of the city's downtown core, and a former ice hockey arena which includes the complex's entrance and an IMAX theatre. The snowflake buildings are connected by a rock tunnel, which passes through a billion-year-old geologic fault. This fault line was not known to be under the complex during the construction of the building in the early 1980s. Where the walkway reaches the larger snowflake, the Inco Cavern auditorium is frequently used for temporary exhibits, press conferences, and other gala events by Science North and the wider community.

    One of the few attractions Sudbury has to be proud of is the beautiful science centre also known as science north. Not only can a family come in to have fun but they can also learn. I've spent many hours of my child hood running through the building learning about animals, nature, space and all other sorts of cool things. Not only does it attract Sudbury citizens but also tourists from out of town. It is a great way to discover and have fun!

    Science North is a very fun and educational adventure for the whole family. It is set up so that every participant can experiment, have fun, and learn about science at their own pace with interactive, science related, stations and facilitators or 'blue coats' ready to demonstrate and teach at every corner.
