The Long Island Exhibition Center's Butterflies and Birds! exhibit showcases a colorful company of butterflies that hail from regions across the world. Wander across stone walkways and up spiral staircases laced in winding vines to catch glimpses of colorful winged creatures, some of whom may even chance a brief landing on a shoulder or a hat shaped like a 24-hour nectar diner. Besides insects, the exhibit also grants close encounters with tropical birds in the aviary. The nearly 5,000-square-foot tropical garden, which is kept at a constant 80 degrees, fills the air with the heady scent of exotic flowers and leafy trees as visitors learn about the natural world through hands-on experiences.

Prices of regular admission vary by age. Children under the age of 2 are admitted free.

Long Island Exhibition Center

When you think you’ve walked as far east as you can go at the Long Island Aquarium, keep walking, and you’ll enter the realm of the adjacent Long Island Exhibition Center. Recent exhibitions include the Butterflies and Birds! display, which gathers more different species of butterflies and multiple types of birds, as well as archerfish for a stunning and vivid exhibit set to a storybook theme. Much like a larva’s youth, the exhibit isn’t permanent, but Executive Director Bryan DeLuca comments, “…Even though the exhibit will only be on display for a limited engagement, we encourage visitors to linger as long as they like while they can."

The Groupon Guide to: Astronaut Skills

Astronauts need to be world-class athletes, die-hard patriots, and scientific masterminds, but any montage of astronaut training also reveals these other crucial skills they possess:

  • Holding your breath for more than 30 seconds, even if someone is trying to make you laugh
  • Saying "Tang tastes as good as orange juice" with a straight face
  • Being blessed with particularly flappable cheeks
  • Juggling three beanbags at once (if you're that good on Earth, imagine how good you'll be without gravity!)
  • Being bald or having very little hair (male astronauts only)
  • Naming all the planets in correct order in fewer than three tries
  • Providing their own space suit

Do you have the unexpected skills needed to be an unlikely astronaut? Find out in today's Groupon Guide.
