Niagara Power Vista–NYPA Niagara Power Project

Visit the Niagara Power Vista and experience an exciting and interactive adventure designed for inquisitive minds of all ages! Understand electricity through the eyes of pioneers like Nikola Tesla and Thomas Edison, see how the massive Robert Moses Dam plays a role in providing power. Have the chance to design your own dam, to operate a power grid during a storm, and to walk through a turbine. Enjoy a high-tech virtual ride that takes you plummeting from the sky and into the Niagara River; shooting through the penstocks and swirling around a spinning turbine; then zipping at high speeds along high-tension power lines across the landscapes of New York State. From seat-gripping virtual reality to hands-on experiments to the power of nature, the Power Player experience at the Niagara Power Vista is free and a must-see for all in the Niagara area!
