  • Satelix visual appearance of the planetarium film.

    Avaruudesta maahan 

    Lähde mukaan satelliittiseikkailuun! Työpajassa tutustutaan mystisiin satelliitteihin – mitä ne ovat, mitä ne näkevät, ja miten ne auttavat meitä ymmärtämään maailmaa. Työpajassa pääsee kurkistamaan satelliitin sisälle, tutkimaan vanhoja ja uusia kuvia eri paikoista maailmassa, ja vertailemaan näkymiä maan päältä ja avaruudesta. 

  • The picture shows an imaginary animal created by combining parts of different animals. It has the head of a dinosaur, the horn of a unicorn, the front body of a reindeer, and the rear body of a pig.

    Exo Life Workshop

    Science already knows of thousands of exoplanets, whole worlds orbiting a star other than the Sun. We can draw conclusions about the conditions on those planets and use them to guess what life might be like there. In the workshop, you'll get to build imaginative creatures, and animate them against the backdrop of various hypothetical exo-worlds.
