Be the first in Southeast Asia to embark on an extraordinary space odyssey.
Science Centre Singapore, in partnership with Kingsmen Exhibits, our wholly-owned subsidiary, is thrilled to announce the Southeast Asian debut of Space Explorers: THE INFINITE, world's largest extended reality space exploration experience. The exclusive showcase, inspired by NASA missions, will transport guests on an extraordinary journey 400km above Earth, offering a once-in-a-lifetime chance to experience life aboard the International Space Station (ISS).
A Journey to the Final Frontier Awaits
Space Explorers: THE INFINITE expands on the success of the Primetime Emmy® Award-winning series Space Explorers: The ISS Experience. Created by Felix & Paul Studios in collaboration with TIME Studios and NASA. Curated from over 250 hours of 3D-360° immersive content filmed onboard the International Space Station (ISS), more than 16 hours of astronaut testimonials, and the first-ever spacewalk ever filmed in virtual reality (VR). The recordings form the basis for the immersive story and narrative of Space Explorers: THE INFINITE. This is the largest production to date to be ever filmed in space, offering unprecedented access into the lives of astronauts as they train for and embark on life-changing missions.
The multi-sensory free-roaming VR experience will allow participants to:
• Become an honorary astronaut: Experience the wonders of spaceflight firsthand, from witnessing breathtaking views of Earth to taking part in simulated daily routines of astronauts conducting cutting-edge scientific research.
• Explore a virtual ISS replica: This expansive exhibition will transport guests to a meticulously detailed life-sized virtual recreation of the iconic space station in 3D. Experience the awe-inspiring vastness of space firsthand.
• Experience the daily lives of astronauts in VR: Through exclusive footage and video diaries, get up close and personal with these brave explorers as they share their experiences and the challenges they face living and working in space.
• Embark on a thrilling spacewalk: Strap in for a breathtaking cinematic virtual reality adventure as you experience the exhilaration of a real spacewalk.
“The rise of space tourism represents a pivotal moment in the history of space exploration. The progress we have made is testament to the indomitable nature of the human drive to push the boundaries of scientific discovery and technological advancement to discover new worlds. Given the significant developments in commercial space travel, the prospect of civilians venturing beyond Earth’s atmosphere is no longer confined to science fiction. But how many people have that opportunity to witness Earth from the vantage point of space? Space Explorers: THE INFINITE offers that unprecedented chance to experience the cosmos firsthand," said Associate Professor Lim Tit Meng, Chief Executive, Science Centre Board. "This immersive experience enabled by cutting-edge technology and captivating storytelling aligns with our mission to spark a lifelong fascination for STEM and inspire the next generation of trailblazers who will set foot into distant worlds.”
Since its inception in 2021, Space Explorers: THE INFINITE has welcomed over 400,000 visitors from the U.S. (Houston, Tacoma, Richmond, Denver, West Palm Beach, and Charlotte) and Canada (Montreal and Vancouver). These numbers are a stark contrast to around 300 individuals who have had the privilege of visiting the real ISS.
“Kingsmen is thrilled to partner with Science Centre Singapore to bring Space Explorers: THE INFINITE to Southeast Asia for the first time,” said Anthony Chong, Group Managing Director of Kingsmen Exhibits. “This groundbreaking exhibition aligns perfectly with our mission to create unforgettable and transformative experiences that ignite curiosity and inspire wonder. We believe Space Explorers: THE INFINITE will not only captivate audiences but also foster a deeper appreciation for the marvels of space exploration and the incredible work of astronauts and scientists.”
"The new ways of art intersecting with technology reflect our progression towards the stars. Space experiences have been mediated by technology. Thanks to immersive technologies, audiences can experience an astronaut’s journey from within. Hence, the limit is no longer access to space, but rather how we can bring space back to Earth. Exactly what Space Explorers: THE INFINITE exhibition offers – a large-scale multi-sensory experience offering an opportunity for people to move inside the ISS, experience life beyond Earth and get a sense of floating in space. We are thrilled to bring this groundbreaking experience to Southeast Asia in partnership with Kingsmen Exhibits and the Science Centre Singapore," Felix Lajeunesse, Co-Founder of Felix & Paul Studios and Chief Creative Officer at Infinity Experiences Inc added.
