Over the next weekend in Città della Scienza, traditional experiments and games revisited in a scientific key, tinkering, quizzes and much more await you to test your skills.
On January 21 and 22 at Science City Experiments, games revisited in a scientific key, tinkering, quizzes and much more await you to test your skills and challenge friends and relatives on scientific topics.
Nature, like the game, has rules that all players (both living and non-living) must respect. In this great “game of the universe”, not all rules are fully known or understood. Scientists aim to find and deepen these rules, to let everyone play better and better.
This weekend in Città della Scienza there will be no shortage of performances in the planetarium, guided tours of the interactive Museum of the Human Body Corporea and scheduled exhibitions: Insetti & Co, 7 steps in sustainability, “Spazio al Futuro”, “Aquae. The future is in Ocean” and “The Bonelli Story – Looking at Procida. A Sea of Storyboards.”
Watch the program!
Playing with sound
What is the physics behind how straws work? It’s a very simple tool that allows us to explore some of the basic laws of propagation of sound waves in an “air” medium. It will be possible to build beautiful instruments such as whistles, trumpets and pipes using only straws!

Blow Science!
The child’s first contact with the outside world is light and air. And it is precisely the air, of all the natural elements, that most escapes the child’s knowledge. In reality, air can neither be seen nor touched but we will be able to explain it with grain of science.
