An untethered VR walkthrough of the International Space Station, built from 3D footage the astronauts shot aboard the real thing.

VRLimited run

Most VR attractions build their worlds from scratch; this one filmed a real place almost nobody gets to stand inside. Because it is free-roaming rather than seated, you cross the modules on your own legs, which is the part that actually conveys the scale. The engagement ends September 30, so the window is genuinely short.

What to expect

Sessions run roughly every half hour, 12:00 to 6:30 PM Friday and 11:00 AM to 6:30 PM Saturday and Sunday. The experience is about forty minutes in a headset with free movement, so wear something you can walk in. A $3.95 booking fee applies per ticket.

Good to know

  • New York residents pay $39 against the $49 adult ticket.
  • The last bookable session of the entire run is September 30, 2026.
  • Free-roaming and untethered — you physically walk the modules.
