CERN's science shows are interactive demonstrations in front of an audience of up to 400 participants. They present various topics related to CERN - and beyond. The science shows are guided by scripts - but they do not need to be learnt off by heart.
Come and marvel at simple and entertaining experiments, often bordering on the magical, which demonstrate different states of matter and magnetism in a fun way. Break a rubber tube with a hammer? Levitate a magnet? It's not magic, it's science! This science show Mysteries of Matter explores the world of matter and different states of matter, including plasma and superconductors.
Science show Mysteries of Matter is accessible as of 6 years old and lasts about 45 minutes.
