Space is considered the next frontier outside our planet as
the pioneer sci-fi show Star Trek narrated in its introduction. Since the dawn
of humankind, our ancestors are already drawn to the heavenly bodies. Today,
kids and adults alike are still fascinated with what lies beyond our orbit.
The Mind Museum is now introducing their new roving exhibit
titled Space Adventure. Not only that I am thrilled to go back but I am also
curious what the stuff to do at the Space Adventure is. Tagging along with me
for the Space Adventure are my partner and her two siblings.
There is an interesting part for me in this exhibit which is
the future of exploration of nearby planets. Mars is the nearest planet to
Earth and recently it was discovered that there is still water on the Martian
surface. The roving exhibit shows the ideal future of manned exploration of the
nearest planet and what kind of living environment we are going to have in
another planet. There is an air lock since Mars don’t have breathable air,
living quarters, etc. If you have seen the movie, The Martian, it is somehow
close to that.
There is also one part of the exhibit that has different
weighing scale which will calculate how much you will weigh on other planets of
the Solar System The exhibit also have fun activities for kids like art
activities and how to launch a homemade rocket.
What makes this roving museum convenient because it can tour
anywhere. Not all can go to the Mind Museum since most of the schools are not
from the Greater Metropolitan Manila area so it may tour beyond the region.
Go to The Mind Museum website to find out the schedule of
the Space Adventure roving museum. You can also tour the regular Mind Museum
exhibit along with the Space Adventure. For more updates of The Mind Museum,
