Sci-fi fans can explore the world of "Doctor Who" through a new exhibit that made its U.S. debut at the Comic-Con Museum on Saturday.

Zoom in: Doctor Who Worlds of Wonder: Where Science Meets Fiction is one of the largest exhibits in the museum's history, and features iconic props from the world's longest-running sci-fi show, which first aired in 1963.

Visitors enter through the TARDIS spaceship to see all 17 of the Doctor's costumes and learn about scientific topics that informed the show from the space-time continuum to AI to cloning.

If you go: Buy tickets ($12–$20) online or at the door, which includes admission to the entire museum in Balboa Park.

It's open Thursday-Tuesday from 10am-5pm (closed Wednesday), with the exhibit on display through March 2026.
