In the KBSU planetarium, the children watched with great interest a film about the planets of the solar system, their location in relation to the central star — the Sun. After watching, the engineering and technical group of students of the GSMO sub-department, led by Associate Professor of the Department of the Russian Language and General Educational Disciplines Emma Kokova, sang a song in Russian about the planets.

‘The interactive museum of natural science is not like the others; here the visitor is not only an idle listener, but also an active participant in exciting experiments. Each exhibit demonstrates the laws of the surrounding world. For example, you can study Newton’s law, understand how a straight line can enter a curve and become a hyperboloid of rotation, how illusions work, how a mirage is formed, you can learn how movies and cartoons are created, try to draw by controlling your movements through a mirror, and also take a test on the stability of the hands, to raise yourself in a chair and even touch the lightning with your hands. Physics, mathematics, chemistry, biology from school disciplines at the Einstein Museum of Entertaining Sciences turn into a fascinating educational world», — Emma Kokova shared her impressions.

All exhibits can and even need to be touched, twisted, pressed, rocked, in general, explored!» — recommended the Syrian Kozhan Majd.
