Rules and Regulations
Our regular operating hours are posted on the Space Foundation Discovery Center website and, under normal circumstances, we will be open as posted. Occasionally, we may have to close for inclement weather, private functions or issues that affect access to the building. In those cases, we will post closing information on the website here.
On weekdays during the school year, we will generally follow the Colorado Springs School District 11 inclement weather policy; however, it is wise to check the home page if you are concerned.
