"Eksploradom" - another science museum in Paris, while in the French capital, and so a lot of them. It is located in the south-eastern suburb of Vitry-sur-Seine, by Russian standards, very close to the center. A visit there worth it, especially with children.

At the root of "Eksploradoma" was a French physicist Gary Delakot, a passionate advocate of new teaching methods of the natural sciences in school. In an effort to find support for his ideas, he was in the eighties of the last century has traveled all natural science museums of the United States and became friends with Frank Oppenheimer - the younger brother of the "father of the atomic bomb," Robert Oppenheimer. Frank also contributed to the development of nuclear weapons, but after the war was known as a Communist for many years could not work in their specialty. When the situation eased, he founded in San Francisco "Eksplorarium" - an interactive science museum. Seeing a thousand exhibits "Eksplorariuma" Gary Delakot was delighted: it was what he was looking for. This museum should appear on the banks of the Seine!

"Eksploradom" opened in 1998. The basis of its composition interactive objects, designed and created in San Francisco of the American experts "Eksplorariuma" (though, of course, is here now and own development). But does it matter where the exposition? The language of science is universal.

In this museum, where children lead since four years, everything can be touched by hands. Moreover, it is forbidden to exhibits and equipment not   touch! Visitors are offered to hold the sixty most current scientific experiments - from the classic optical illusions to experiment with modern equipment. The "robot club" "children create a robot who knows how to swim, walk and jump. The" Game Design Club "design and program video games. In the section of the flying machines built light aircraft, which he returned to his master.

In addition to the permanent exhibition at the "Eksploradome" one after the other are a variety of exhibitions. Chemistry in everyday life, the laws of physics in the circus, new forms of energy, materials of the future - this is their theme. Trade shows are entirely practical nature: the children of four years, for example, show how to make a computer animation.

The hottest time in the "Eksploradome" - school holidays when the kids bring down here in droves. But the museum goes to the children County residents know the green avtobus- "eksploramobil" travels to schools to give lectures, workshops and virtual experiences.
