Across the street from Miyazaki Station is the Miyazaki Science Center. Also known as Cosmoland, this museum features many interactive exhibits with an emphasis on physics and space.
Inside the museum is an animatronic "Dr. Cosmo" who greets visitors and introduces them to the museum and its exhibits, most of which are hands on and let visitors experiment with various principles of physics.
The main emphasis of the museum is on space, however. Along with interactive exhibits and activities on space travel, the is also a real sized model of the Apollo 11 Moon Lander, a Gemini Spacecraft and a 1/4 scale model of a Japanese H-1 Rocket. In addition, the museum's upper floor houses one of the world's largest planetariums.
