Explore how the Universe works at tiny scales

We live in a Quantum World! Quantum physics explains why the sun shines. It allows us to make smartphones and to understand how plants grow. Yet, strange and wonderful quantum effects only occur at the tiny scales of particles… don’t they? In this interactive exhibition discover the world of particles as if you yourself were so tiny.

A 20-minute guided interactive adventure gives groups of 8 a chance to experience quantum effects first hand. Departure every 8 minutes. Alongside, there are exhibits to explore – sing quantum karaoke, spot the entangled particles, play the quantum tunnelling game and try out quantum tennis. All is not as it might at first seem…
