Traveling Exhibition

From Here to There

Come explore the science of how things move by land, sea and air. Ride a hovercraft, turn up the heat to launch a colorful hot air balloon, and float a boat. Lift, launch and levitate your way through hands-on exhibits that make learning about gravity, friction, and the laws of motion fun!

Visitors can operate an authentic canal lock system to move a boat from one water level to the next, adjust wind speed to form fabric into an airfoil, and experiment with pneumatics, pulleys, hydraulics and levers to see what kind of mechanical advantage works best.
