What is a fire tornado? How can we paint fire green? Can we set a shawl on fire without harm? These questions are also answered in Agora’s special experimental demonstration. On the last Wednesday evening program of the summer, those interested can not only try out the unique interactive games of the experience center, but also watch special short films in the planetarium and, with good weather, look at the sky with binoculars after sunset from 9:30 p.m.

In the planetarium show, we present two full-domed short films.

We can only receive a limited number of visitors to the 15-minute planetarium program. Registration at the checkout. We recommend using a mask in the planetarium.
Bright experiments
21: 00-21: 25
What is a fire tornado? How can we paint fire green? Can we set a shawl on fire without harm? Is there a chemical reaction in which the mixture does not explode or effervesce but glows in the dark? All of this comes to light in Agora’s spectacular experimental demonstration.
Spy on the sky!
From 9:30 pm to 10:30 pm In good weather, visitors can admire the Moon through binoculars set up in the parking lot in front of the Agora building, but they can also observe constellations and binary stars under the guidance of an astronomer.
Discover the Interactive Space!
Can an image be cut out of a jet of water? Which instrument can be played without touch? Do we respond faster to sound or light? At the lowest level of the Agora Science Experience Center, you can try out more than forty special games that present various scientific phenomena in an exciting and playful way.
Night binoculars star gazing
Those interested can walk around the Agora Bridge to “explore” the Solar System, and after a short introductory lecture led by an astronomer, they can admire constellations and binary stars through binoculars, as well as discover the constellations currently visible in the night sky.
We recommend the program from the age of 10.
