New shows for 2009
New shows on offer for Secondary Schools
Available February 2009 - Gravity: beyond the Apple
Think scientists know all about gravity? Think again!
Gravity:
Beyond the Apple explains how Isaac Newton almost got it right, but
then Einstein came along and blew his theories apart, giving us new
challenges – like finding gravitational waves.
Available February 2009 - Mysteries of the Cold Universe - Herschel's New Telescope
2009 sees the launch, by the European Space Agency, of a new space
telescope. Find out why we need to view the stars from space and what
the scientists hope to discover.
How do different kinds of telescopes work, and how can they let us see what the universe was like 10 billion years ago?
Available March 2009 - North Only - Sound at the Extremes
Why do men have lower voices than women? What is the worst sound in the world? Can a whale kill a fish using only a bubble?
Join us as we journey from one extreme to the other, from high sounds to low sounds, loud to quiet, nice to nasty!
New shows on offer for Primary Schools
