Pintajännitystä!
Tänä viikonloppuna Tiedemuseossa leikimme pintajännitteen kanssa, ilmiön jota esiintyy mm. saippuakuplissa muodostumisessa. Otamme selvää miten vesiastian voi kääntää ylösalaisin pään päällä ilman että kastuu (toivottavasti!). Pidämme myös uimakilpailun saippuan voimalla uivilla kaloilla ja muita kokeita!

Mahtava Magneetti Viikonloppu!
Tulevana viikonloppuna (22.5.-23.5.) kaikkea siistiä magnetismista! Tiedämme että aamiaismurotkin sisältää rautaa mutta kuinka paljon sitä oikein popsimmekaan? Se ja monta muuta asiaa selviää magneettiviikonloppuna Tiedemuseossa - teemme sähkomoottorin, kompassin ja muuta hauskaa!

Next weeks science show - Marvellous magnetism
This coming weekend (22.5-23.5) is all about magnetism -
We all know that our breakfast cereal contains iron - but have you ever wondered just how much iron is really in there? this weekend we're going to use magnets to find out - as well as making a simple electric motor, finding how a compass works, and doing lots of other really cool stuff!
hope to see you there.....

One month old museum and people behind it
I can't believe its been already more than a month since we opened!!. People who see the museum and ask me how this all started atleast get my side of the story... But all that vision and dreams wouldn't have become real if not for a few people. Marko who is basically the other side of me, Luova Tampere folks - especially Liina, people from Ensimetri, Nordea, designers and vendors from across the world to name a few helped make this dream real.
Apart from the ones mentioned above, there are two other people who not only played a key role in getting this place open, they also are the reason we can run the museum smoothly inspite of new things get thrown at us from time to time...These two are my team members Richard and Junnu. They are allrounders - they give awesome new science shows that even little children can relate to every weekend, give extra special attention and science demonstrations for field trips, maintain our exhibits to make sure they are all safe and fun, take care of customers as they come in, keep the museum well maintained (in other words clean as well), make birthday parties fun and special and still manage to bring out 1-2 new exhibits in a week or two!!! I would like to acknowledge their effort and thank them for deciding to come work with me at the museum..Richard with his "we have to make sure every exhibit is safe enough for even a 3 yr old no matter what the target audience actually is" and Junnu with his "if it helps the museum, lets do it no matter what the effort is", are the best team I can hope for. If only I could do a better job at marketing we will be on a roll haha:)

Tee tänä viikonloppuna matka pään sisään!
Tervetuloa viikonloppuna tutustumaan neurotieteeseen - monenlaista jännää ja hauskaa aivoista. Tohtori Olga Kara PhD. Brain Fitness Centeristä auttaa meitä ymmärtämään mitä päämme sisällä oikein tapahtuu. Videoita, pelejä ja erilaisia aktiviteetteja tästä aiheesta koko viikonlopun! Olemme avoinna klo 10-17.
Get inside your head this weekend at the Discovery Museum
May is "mental health month", so to mark this, our weekend theme is neuroscience - everything to do with the brain and the nervous system.Dr. Olga Kara PhD. from the Brain Fitness Center will be coming to help us all understand something about what goes on up there inside all our heads.
We'll have videos, games, and all kinds of brain related activities, so bring your brain along to join us in the fun this coming weekend!
Olemme helatorstaina avoinna!
Museomme on helatorstaina normaalisti avoinna klo 10-17. Tiede-show, ja tekemistä koko perheelle.

Mahtava ääni - Tiedeshow sukeltaa äänen maailmaan. Super Science of Sound Show this weekend
Hei kaikki! Koska me Tiedemuseossa rakastamme musiikkia, tänä viikonloppuna paneudumme äänen maailmaan - miten ääni syntyy, ja millä periaatteella soittimet toimivat. Teemme hauskoja kokeiluja ja lapset pääsevät kokeilemaan mikrofonilla miten monin tavoin omaa ääntä voi muuttaa. Puuhastelemme myos hauskat pikku soittimet, jonka vie viedä mukanaan kotiin.
Pidetään yhdessä kivaa ja tehdään meteliä!
Hi there - Since we all love music here at the discovery museum, this weekend we'll be getting into the science of sound - discovering what principles make musical instruments work, as well as playing with microphones and changing our voices in all sorts of interesting ways. We'll also have a workshop to make a simple musical instrument to take home with you and lots more fun besides! As with all our weekend science shows, the more the merrier, so come along and join the chorus!
