SOME OF THE SCIENCE EXHIBITON



It's a must go trip every year. This time around the NSC was under construction ( I was not aware of that) but the Dinosaur Exhibition save my day. The mini scientific class was also very good. The kids was shown how to do a very simple science test.

Then there was also a computer graphic simulation. It shows how to create cartoon characters using simple computer application. Highlight of the day was definitely the Dinosaur Exhibition. The robotic dino was excellent and there was 30 of them.

I was told that this year (2011) NSC will open it's Scientific Park just outside of the NSC. It's another initiative to create awareness about science and technology to Malaysians especially children.

I was at the National Science Centre for the "Science of Survival" exhibition in 2009. The exhibition was great, the Science Centre not so! Lots of the displays had been damaged by "itchy fingers". Malaysia needs to cultivate a better culture of maintenance and civic-consciousness!

CO78,

Comparing the current NSC with the previous setup (if I'm not mistaken near PWTC) it was massive improvement. Our NSC at the moment could easily rival other NSC around the world.
