Cells and the Human Body Workshop
Immersive Experiences
Cell! Cell! Cell!- You consist of between 70-100 thousand thousand million living cells (70-100 trillion). They work. They talk. They think. They are what makes you alive and this is the story of how they do it.
- Join Sooki and Raj on an adventure to explore the human body as they use a series of fantastic instruments to peer inside complex living cells.
- Dive with them into the busy, complex world of living cells, see microscopic 'alien trees' and 'wriggling slugs' as they move across the giant 360Ëšscreen. Uncover the mystery of DNA and discover how we all began as a single, tiny cell.
Natural Selection
- Travel with Charles Darwin on the HMS Beagle to the Galapagos Islands, where he was inspired to develop the explanation of 'transmutation by natural selection'.
- From the comfort of Down House in Kent, Darwin himself describes the mechanism of natural selection with numerous beautiful examples and glorious 360Ëš visuals.
- The thrill of a discovery, the adventure of science and the beauty of nature are vividly merged and powerfully brought to life in this unforgettable fulldome film.
The Body Code
- Fly through the carotid artery; explore the eye, brain, ear, and heart.
- Then, shrink into a cell to see its nucleus and the DNA within.
- Discover how DNA programs the body's cells to form the circulatory and nervous systems. Then watch from inside as we use lasers to fight disease at the cellular level.
