Frequently Asked Questions

What can I expect from THE INFINITE?

The experience is an immersive journey into space aboard the International Space Station. The experience lasts approximately 40 to 55 minutes, through guided VR. We ask visitors to kindly remain silent during their visit to THE INFINITE to encourage greater immersion for all.

How long is the experience?

Please expect to spend about 50 minutes with us. This does not account for any wait time could incur.

Is the experience accessible for children?

The experience is accessible to those who are 8 years of age or older. Children aged 8-12, will need a waiver signed by their parent/guardian before starting the experience. Children under the age of 8 will not be admitted, and the use of baby carriers is not permitted, as it is not recommended by the VR manufacturers.

Where can I download the waiver required for children to attend?

The waiver for children ages 8 - 17 will be available to download here in the next few weeks.

Is this experience accessible for wheelchairs?

We can accommodate up to three wheelchairs or large mobility devices per time slot (30 total people per slot). The exhibition is outfitted with ramps, and all entrances and exits are designed with a wide enough space for manual wheelchairs, canes, walkers, or alternative manual mobility devices.

Please note: Motorized wheelchairs are not permitted as they can damage our floor-mounted equipment.

For those with reduced mobility (RM), we have a few different options available to accommodate you, please contact us at guestservices@midlandcenter.org.

Can I wear my glasses with the headset?

The use of contact lenses is preferable to enjoy an optimal experience. Otherwise, the VR device will be placed over your eyes.

According to official documentation from Oculus, if you need to wear eyeglasses, it is recommended that glasses are 142mm or less wide and 50mm or less high. Anything larger will most likely have trouble fitting in the Quest 2 headset.

Can I take pictures or film the experience?

Yes. We invite our guests to take photos and videos for personal use only and would love for you to tag us at @midlandcenter, @theinfinite.experience, and #theinfiniteexperience

Please note, the use of flashes and tripods are strictly prohibited. Press photography (and any other photography for professional use) is also prohibited unless authorized and accompanied by a staff member.

Is the experience same for everyone?

No. THE INFINITE is an experience that is different for every visitor. Each visitor explores the International Space Station in their own way.

Available for Grades 3 - 12
