Extreme Liquid Nitrogen Show @ Redbank Plaza
Jun 27 @ 10:00 am – 10:30 am
Extreme Liquid Nitrogen Show @ Redbank Plaza

Experience an exciting Street Science performance showcasing one of the coolest materials on earth – liquid nitrogen. Liquid nitrogen boils at -196 °C allowing scientists to flash freeze cells and change the properties of numerous materials. Using this chemical, your Street Science presenter will deliver a series of visually enticing science demos including creating touchable clouds and spectacular eruptions, allowing you to experience the full force of this abundant atmospheric gas.

Bouncy Balls Workshop @ Redbank Plaza
Jun 27 @ 11:00 am – 1:00 pm
Bouncy Balls Workshop @ Redbank Plaza

In this drop-in workshop, junior scientists will be bouncing with enthusiasm as they explore the states of change in the physical properties of everyday materials. Using Polyvinyl acetate powder (PVA), it’s a hands-on experience of science as they create glow-in-the-dark bouncy balls.
