The Gravity Discovery Centre is an exciting, not-for-profit science education centre just one hour North of Perth and home to the Leaning Tower of Gingin. Experience hands-on science exhibits and learn about the latest discoveries in science and technology and their relevance to your everyday life.

The GDC is a premier science education centre in Western Australia for Physics and Astronomy, and the only centre in Australia with a focus on Gravity and Cosmology.

The GDC is a well known tourism destination as well as an ideal location for families to enjoy a rewarding educational experience. The GDC is repeatedly mentioned in the Toursim WA Development Priorities as a site deserving special focus.

Situated in the pristine Wallingup Plains, biodiversity is an important aspect of the GDC, which complements the major focus on physics and astronomy. It is a cultural centre with strong links to the Nyoongar people. It is located in a natural bushland setting north of Perth.

The GDC holds astronomy nights every Friday & Saturday nights (except Xmas & Good Friday) where, on different evenings you can enjoy an up close & personal moon experience, see some fellow planets in our Solar System or venture into deep space viewing other galaxies & nebulae. We also have Indigenous Evenings where we sit around a camp fire (weather permitting) & listen to (Uncle) Dr Noel Nannup tell the Nyoongar Creation Story followed by viewing some Indigenous Constellations before stepping into the observatory for a night of Star Gazing.

Children of all ages welcome.
