From Here to There
Trains, planes, boats, automobiles, and many other modes of transportation were designed over the ages to convey travelers ever more rapidly from point "A" to point "B." Explore the science behind different methods of locomotion. Lift, launch and levitate as you experiment with hands-on exhibits that make learning about gravity, friction, and the laws of motion fun. Visitors can turn up the heat to launch a colorful hot air balloon, and adjust wind speed to form fabric into an airfoil.
