The first Science Center in the SaarLorLux region, the Science Center Ferrodrom®, in the burden shed with its area of more than 10,000 m2, invites the visitor to discover the fascinating world of iron and steel. Ferrodrom® takes visitors from the early days of iron production right through to high-tech products of the future. With the four elements fire, water, earth, and air, iron can be produced at its best. These elements can be sampled with the fire- and wind tornado, the ice cube or the wind-machine.
A major exhibition dedicated to the changes that have marked the way we eat and the complexity of the food system.
The protagonists are the people: each of us in his/her relationship with food. Food production professionals, researchers and industry experts, teenagers and adults were all involved in the design of the exhibition.
Sharing, change, relationships and technology are the key words through which the Museum interprets the theme of Expo 2015.
The Planetarium Science Center (PSC) at Bibliotheca Alexandrina (BA) is organizing the Ninth Science Festivity under the overarching theme of Nature and its four elements: Air, Water, Earth and Fire; and what is their influence on our planet.
