Why Choose the Fleet Science Center for Your Date Night Revival?

You may wonder why a science center is the perfect place for a date night rekindling. Well, my dear couples, it's time to think outside the box and unleash your inner curiosity.

1. Reconnect through Wonder

Remember when you first met and everything felt magical? Prepare to recapture that enchantment at the Fleet Science Center. Wander hand-in-hand through captivating exhibits, letting your inquisitive spirits roam free. Rediscover the joy of exploring together and sharing in each other's amazement.

Fun insight about us: This is where we had our first date. You can definitely say that we enjoyed our time and still enjoy it now. We are fortunate to be able to revisit and rekindle our love for science (and each other) when we learn together. Jay Shetty mentions on his podcast ( or maybe on someone else's) that couples should have different modes of connecting. Connecting be new experiences is a great way to reengage with your partner and relearn through bewilderment that is the universe at the Fleet Science Center.

2. Playfulness and Laughter

Sometimes, we get so caught up in the seriousness of life that we forget to laugh and play like we used to. At the Fleet Science Center, you'll encounter interactive exhibits that will reignite your playfulness. Challenge each other to mind-bending puzzles, try out quirky experiments, and revel in the joy of being silly together.

3. Starry-eyed in the Planetarium (COST EXTRA)

Gaze into each other's eyes as you gaze at the stars in the Planetarium. Let the celestial wonders above inspire new dreams and aspirations for your relationship. In the darkened theater, it's just the two of you and the universe, creating an intimate setting to whisper sweet nothings and share your deepest desires.

When we went on our first date and watched the planets movie - it was beautiful from what I remember (date took place Aug 2014). Honestly, I was more into Jay than I was into the show, so if you are on a date - you may want to pay for the ambiance, but if you are really into them and just want to chat - feel free to opt out. You're not missing much. And besides, it's free every 1ST Tuesday and you can always go again!

4. Bond over Sci-Fi Dreams

Do you both love science fiction? Let your imaginations run wild as you immerse yourselves in the fantastical and futuristic exhibits. Share your sci-fi dreams and fantasies, and who knows, perhaps you'll even come up with your own cosmic adventures together!

5. Dining Delight (Cost)

After a day filled with awe and excitement, head to a nearby restaurant and indulge in delicious food or if you packed food, go to a near by garden for a picnic. Relish the opportunity to talk about your favorite discoveries, the mind-boggling exhibits, and your shared excitement for more date night escapades.

So, my fellow couples seeking to rekindle the sparks of romance, seize the opportunity to embark on an extraordinary date night at the Fleet Science Center's Free Residence Tuesdays. It's a chance to break free from the mundane and rediscover the magic of togetherness. Embrace the wonders of science, exploration, and laughter as you create cherished memories that will keep the flame burning brighter than ever before.
