SUMMARY:Open Lab – The Physics of everyday technology
DESCRIPTION:Have you ever looked at something and wondered how it works\, or why is it doing that\, then congratulations\, you’ve taken the first steps in becoming a scientist. Come along to the open lab to explore how the journey to answer questions has shaped the world around us. \nAsk about how frog legs helped to invent batteries\, get to explore how magnets make electricity or investigate how science of rainbows helps us study the stars. If you also have a question about something of your own\, bring it along and let’s see what we can find. \nJoin Scientist in Residence\, Sam Verne to explore physics in this hands-on activity. \nThis drop-in style activity is suitable for all ages\, attendees can arrive and depart any time during the session\,

SUMMARY:Electricity Show
DESCRIPTION:Making lightning whenever you want would be awesome and that is what tesla coils allow you to do. In the electricity show we get to explore how tesla coils work and some of the cool things you can do with them\, exploring the way electric fields impact the world around us. \nThis presentation takes place in the Ulverstone Planetarium at Hive. \nPlanetarium terms and conditions \n• Please arrive at Hive at least fifteen minutes before the start of the show.\n• All ticket holders are required to check in at Hive Visitor Services on the ground floor before making their way throughout the building.\n• Tickets can be purchased at Hive Visitor Services on the ground floor if seats are still available.\n• Shows start promptly on the hour\, and unfortunately latecomers cannot be admitted once the doors have been closed.\n• Visitors who leave the Planetarium during the show cannot be re-admitted \nPlease note: This program is recommended for participants aged 5+\, children under the age of 16 must be accompanied by their parents

SUMMARY:Wacky Waves
DESCRIPTION:The science of sound is rather interesting because it uses waves\, and waves are weird.

SUMMARY:Bottled Lightning
DESCRIPTION:Have you ever wondered why you get shocked sometimes when touching metal? Well\, this is to do with static electricity\, the power source of lightning. Come along and get to see some of the many ways we can make and use static electricity\, and maybe also build a way to store it! \nJoin Scientist in Residence\, Sam Verne to explore physics in this hands-on activity. \nPlease note: This workshop is recommended for participants aged 5+\, children under the age of 16 must be accompanied by their parents.

Come along and get to see some of the many ways we can make and use static electricity\, and maybe also build a way to store it! \nJoin Scientist in Residence\, Sam Verne to explore physics in this hands-on activity. \nPlease note: This workshop is recommended for participants aged 5+\, children under the age of 16 must be accompanied by their parents.

SUMMARY:Open Lab – The Physics of everyday technology
DESCRIPTION:Have you ever looked at something and wondered how it works\, or why is it doing that\, then congratulations\, you’ve taken the first steps in becoming a scientist. Come along to the open lab to explore how the journey to answer questions has shaped the world around us. \nAsk about how frog legs helped to invent batteries\, get to explore how magnets make electricity or investigate how science of rainbows helps us study the stars. If you also have a question about something of your own\, bring it along and let’s see what we can find. \nJoin Scientist in Residence\, Sam Verne to explore physics in this hands-on activity. \nThis drop-in style activity is suitable for all ages\, attendees can arrive and depart any time during the session\,

DESCRIPTION:Making lightning whenever you want would be awesome and that is what tesla coils allow you to do. In the electricity show we get to explore how tesla coils work and some of the cool things you can do with them\, exploring the way electric fields impact the world around us. \nThis presentation takes place in the Ulverstone Planetarium at Hive. \nPlanetarium terms and conditions \n• Please arrive at Hive at least fifteen minutes before the start of the show.\n• All ticket holders are required to check in at Hive Visitor Services on the ground floor before making their way throughout the building.\n• Tickets can be purchased at Hive Visitor Services on the ground floor if seats are still available.\n• Shows start promptly on the hour\, and unfortunately latecomers cannot be admitted once the doors have been closed.\n• Visitors who leave the Planetarium during the show cannot be re-admitted \nPlease note: This program is recommended for participants aged 5+\, children under the age of 16 must be accompanied by their parents
