The Exploratorium is in the Palace of Fine Arts on the North end of 
San Francisco.  This is West of Pier 39 and the general Wharf area.
Any good map of San Francisco will have the Palace listed, they might 
even have the Exploratorium :)

YES!  It is a NEAT place.  They atarted the 'It's not only OKAY to 
touch the exhibts, but PLEASE DO!' philosphy.  I have been there
several times and have ALWAYS enjoyed it!  The exhibits change over
time so I am not sure what they have these days.

ENJOY!
