With school holidays already halfway through, Scienceworks is ensuring there’s no shortage of family fun entertainment in the coming weeks.
Summer is looking to be a scientific-delight, with the museum’s brand new Summersphere program offering exciting activities, interactive shows and games for the whole family.
Running until January 27, the program is a celebration of all things summer – right from creating your own bespoke bubble wand to dancing the day away at Scienceworks’ first-ever foam party.
Sessions include a Bubblemania show where viewers can discover the wonders of the soapy spheres; a mesmerising glow show; as well as numerous planetarium screenings.
Visitors can also dive into the marvel of air at Scienceworks’ Air Playground exhibition, then let the fun continue with bubbles, balloons, and beach balls at their newly refurbished arena.
In addition to the installations, kids can enjoy an hour-long frothy extravaganza every Friday at the museum as part of a weekly foam party.
Summersphere also includes a new permanent moon display in the Planetarium foyer.
Created by UK artist Luke Jerram, this breathtaking piece uses high-resolution images from NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter.
The data, stitched together by the Astrogeology Science Centre in the USA, offers visitors a unique opportunity to marvel at the Moon’s surface up close.
