Science Showcase
In a galaxy far, far away… Actually, right here in Dunedin!
This is a space science showcase that is out of this world. You will get to build a satellite, launch a rocket, and see how you can create energy out of water. Get up close with ion thrusters, a four-billion-year-old meteor, and a part of a secret Russian space craft. There are also virtual reality experiences where you can take your first giant leaps into space and explore our entire solar system and beyond.
Tūhura Tuarangi is packed with hands-on interactives to play with, build, launch, and explode with your whole whānau. Discover the amazing space technologies and world-leading research going on right here in Aotearoa New Zealand and learn about all the space-related careers that are unfolding.
We also want to hear about your hopes and dreams for what Aotearoa's future in space might look like – and how YOU can be a part of telling our space story.
