The American Museum of Science and Energy (AMSE for short) is an all time favorite for children and anyone who has a love for gizmos. The admission is very cheap and they run many interesting shows, of which, the most well known is "Atom Smasher" and electrifying experience where your hair will stand on end. Sound intriguing? You'll have to check it out. You can also learn about Oak Ridge's past in their extensive wartime exhibit or discover physics in the upper room. Overall it is a great place to kill a few hours.
