Science Rendezvous 2025 brings wonder to Kingston

On a Saturday in May, the ice at Slush Puppie Place is nowhere to be found. Instead, microscopes, robot arms, and interactive displays fill the arena floor. Outside on The Tragically Hip Way, Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s researchers and community volunteers lead experiments, with visitors eager to ask questions like, 'Can I touch that?' and 'What happens if you mix these?카지노 게임 컬렉션�

As the countdown to Science Rendezvous 2025 continues, there's a lot to look forward to, especially for those eager to explore the world of science and technology. This year카지노 게임 컬렉션�s theme, WONDER, invites attendees to experience the awe of discovery through more than 60 interactive booths hosted by Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s faculty, staff, and students, and local organizations. These are just a few of the exciting booths visitors will encounter throughout the day:

At the Human Body in Motion booth, visitors can interact with motion capture technology and learn how muscles and bones work together to facilitate movement. The booth will also feature 3D-printed models of human bones, offering insight into the structure and mechanics behind the human body카지노 게임 컬렉션�s functions.

The Robot Doctors booth will demonstrate the role of robotics in modern healthcare. With exhibits like a surgical guidance robot and a phantom model to simulate body parts, attendees can gain an understanding of how advancements in computer science, engineering, and medicine are shaping the future of medical procedures.

In the From Roar to Soar booth, the relationship between dinosaurs and modern birds will be explored. Through visuals and activities, attendees can learn about the evolutionary link between these prehistoric creatures and their living descendants.

The Human-Powered Rover Test Drive booth lets visitors navigate a pedal-powered vehicle across a simulated Martian terrain. Participants will move through a short obstacle course in the two-seater, bike-like rover, aiming to finish in the shortest time.

Throughout the day, scheduled live demonstrations will also give visitors a chance to see science on stage. Smashing Strawberries offers a close-up look at genetics by extracting real DNA from strawberries. Phenomenal Physics blends magnetism, motion, and a bit of kitchen chaos in a hands-on demonstration. And the always-popular Chemistry Magic Show returns with colourful reactions, flashes, and fizzing experiments that highlight the surprising properties of everyday substances.
