Visitors can learn about the forces behind electricity and magnetism, explore the tools and lifestyles of ancient civilizations, explore the exhibits in the outdoor science park and even learn some of the basic principles of subatomic physics. Special summer camps for children between the ages of six and twelve are offered, as are daily live science demonstrations for all visitors.
