Scienceworks is a museum with a difference. It’s an educational, adventure playground that aims to explain to visitors the workings of science and technology by allowing them to look, touch, and play with the exhibits.

One of the main differences between Scienceworks and other museums, is its location. While most museums are generally located in the city amongst modern office blocks, this one is in a working class suburb of Melbourne, Australia. Factories surround the museum like an industrial theme park. There’s even a disused sewerage processing plant within the Scienceworks complex.

The museum is home to both temporary and permanent exhibitions. The four permanent exhibitions are called Inventions, Energy, Travel and Materials. The displays in each section are accompanied by information about how the technology works, the story behind its invention and the ways in which it has affected people’s daily lives both at home and at work. The museum’s curator, Richard Gillespie, believes the museum works because its exhibits are well­- chosen examples of technology that are familiar to visitors. “Having this kind of connection with exhibits, helps simplify science instead of complicating it like so many other science museums do,” says Richard.

Scienceworks also encourages its visitors to interact with the exhibits. The Inventions exhibition is real ‘hands-­on’ stuff. You can press buttons, pull levers and watch in amazement as engines start and models come to life. The Energy exhibition challenges you to provide the energy for a hand­- powered washing machine and an old­- fashioned hand saw. If that doesn’t tire you out, move on to Sports Works where you can have your physical fitness levels tested while racing a virtual Olympic sprinter.

When your body wants a rest, but your mind’s hungry for more, head to the Scienceworks Planetarium. A unique digital computer and projection system takes you on a journey through space and time. From the comfort of a reclining chair you will travel to the moon and stars and beyond to other galaxies and the dawn of the universe. The pla­netarium also hosts a special sleepover package for kids during school holidays where they get to go on a scary ghost tour and observe the stars through telescopes. Whether you’re five or ninety-­five, a visit to Scienceworks is definitely a must. It’s fun, it’s informative, and everyone should go!
