Top Secret: licence to spy

Become a secret agent and go on a journey through the history of spy technology into a future that most people can only imagine. The exhibition features 23 interactive exhibits incorporating codes, hidden cameras, laser beams and satellite technology.

Exhibition Trail

A crime has been committed, a powerful supercomputer stolen, which, if landed in the wrong hands could destroy the world. There are six suspects, who all have various motives for stealing the computer. Students enter the exhibition, and, armed with a spy education trail, embark on a mission to gather intelligence to solve the crime. The printed trails are provided to schools by Questacon.
