Events
The museum holds a variety of events that allow visitors to learn while having fun.
A wide range of events are held, from those visitors can participate in casually, to those that require careful thought to complete. Visitors are encouraged to participate in those events that suit their tastes.
We hope that these activities not only familiarize everyone with science and technology but also trigger an interest in the field.
Please note that all activities will be held in Japanese only.
