Explore More Stuff lab

Now Open

Play, investigate and discover chemistry and physics

What is "stuff" and how does it change? Discover the secrets of stuff in Explore More Stuff , a lab-like environment where matter and energy are explored and tested. Kids and adults alike have a chance to experiment with forces that are controlled only by the laws of physics and chemistry.

We are all scientists at heart so put on your thinking caps and test theories by experimenting with:


- Forces and Material
Experiment to determine optimum materials for constructing particular objects or structures.

- Magnetism and Electricity
Explore the magnetic relationships between matter, energy and electricity and your own magnets.

- Luminescence
Initiate chemical and physical reactions that light up.

- Discrepant Events
Discover why something happens the way it does and that things are not always as they seem. Utilize hands-on interactions in the lab to test and resolve science conundrums.

- Green Building
Build a miniature eco-friendly structure and test combinations of variables to refine your creation to achieve energy efficiency.

- Chair Design
Test engineering skills while creating a practical and usable work of art out of uncommon materials.

- Solar Cooker
Harness and measure the power of solar energy using everyday items. Plus test several designs for solar ovens and taste the results!

Note: Programs change daily.

Each month the Explore More Stuff lab serves up a new set of engaging activities.

Whats Happening In February:
Robotics – Experience the sophistication of technology while tinkering with electrical and mechanical automatons.
