Our four-story Atrium is the perfect place for hands-on exhibits about the physics of air and flight. This exhibit area will blow you away!
Balance a beach ball on a column of air.
Learn about high and low pressure systems and weather maps.
Create a parachute, hoist it two stories up, and watch what happens as it floats down. Compare the flight of different parachute designs.
Make a rocket out of foam and felt, and see how high you can shoot it. Learn about aerodynamics, drag, and resistance as you test different designs.
Thump the drum and see how long it takes the air to travel to make a sound.
At first you may think it's a square basketball hoop. Instead, when you pump the lever, it shoots a ball high into the air!
