A must-see for kids of any age, this tantalizing collection of interactive exhibits and experiences is designed to stimulate the imagination and teach scientific principles. The Fleet also houses an IMAX Dome Theater (the world's first) showing films on such a grand scale that ocean footage can actually give you motion sickness; every Friday evening, three or four different IMAX films are shown in succession at discounted prices. The Fleet also has a spiffy planetarium simulator powered by computer graphics; planetarium shows are the first Wednesday of each month at 7 and 8pm ($11 adults, $9 seniors and kids 3-12). With all the interactive attractions, you'll need at least 90 minutes here. If it's during the school year, plan to visit after 1pm when school groups have departed.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
