TRAVELING EXHIBIT

Give science a whirl with Spin: The Science of Rotation. Spin is an exciting exhibit that explores the fun and science of objects that rotate!
Guests of all ages will be fascinated to explore the science behind spinning toys, sports, transportation, space travel, entertainment and even the Universe itself. Create your own laser show, race objects along tracks, and experience inertia as you sit in a giant tub and make your head spin! Whee!
Spin was developed and is owned by The Health Adventure in Asheville, North Carolina, and Catawba Science Center in Hickory, North Carolina, as part of the Traveling Exhibits at Museums of Science Collaborative and funded
by a grant from the National Science Foundation.
