For science centre, what I can say is that it is just normal. However, I do amazed by the abundant amount of material on life sciences. Maybe Singapore aims to be a world class centre of biological research.
We also went to watch the IMAX movie on the "Legends of Flight" which describe about the creation of new Airbus 380 and Boeing 787 Dreamliner. The screen itself is 5-storey high and the screen is actually the building dome. The screen is so huge and the A380 engine shown is bigger than me.

Lunch in Singapore Zoo @ Ah Meng Restaurant
Don't play-play. Ah Meng was a very famous Sumatran orang utan and she was a celebrity in the 90s. She was visited by Prince Philips & even Michael Jackson. She was also a "Special Tourism Ambassador" for Singapore.

Singapore Science Centre
From zoo, we took bus 927 to Choa Chu Kang. From there, we can take MRT to Jurong East MRT station where the science centre is located.
Finally we reached the science centre. The centre is about 10-15 minutes walk from Jurong East station.

Orchard Road
This road is famous for shopping. For me this place does not catch my attention very much. Much of the items here are quite expensive. They have extensive selection but its not cheap. I notice that the items in Singapore is very cheap for Singaporean. For example we earn the same amount of dollar example SGD2000 & MYR2000. The same shirt cost SGD33 while in Malaysia, it cost MYR70. I can see that their purchasing power are indeed very high compared to ours. A luxury Louis Vuitton (LV) wallet only cost around SGD500 while in Malaysia, it sold for more than MYR1000.
Ion Orchard.
Along Orchard road. River of people & so packed even on weekday.
