About
Crank up your curiosity and spark your imagination at our newest exhibition: Questacon Presents: ZAP! CLANK! POW!
With 17 exhibits across three zones and a trio of delightful characters, Questacon Presents explores electricity – ZAP! - simple machines – CLANK! - and fundamental forces – POW!
In Questacon Presents: ZAP! CLANK! POW! you can become a battery, lift herculean loads with levers and use mechanisms to make mechanical music. Feel charged up as you watch 15,000 volts of electricity force its way through the air as an arc of plasma. Discover how simple machines make work easier by lifting your own body weight into the air with the help of pulleys. Create a flying contraption and let it fly on a wind table, experimenting with airflow and aerodynamics.
