The Earth Zone features earthquake simulations and devices that create clouds and volcanoes, while the Northern Country Zone allows observation of snow crystal formations and low-temperature experiments. The state-of-the-art planetarium, which can realistically recreate the beauty of the night sky, is also a highlight.
