We reveal the secrets of the sun in a fun and interactive, science-based exhibition for all ages.
The award winning Sunlight – Ihi Kōmaru brings new life to the story of sunlight through interactive games, challenges and dynamic multimedia.
Discover how sunlight is created, play with the properties of light, follow a photon, activate the amazing process of photosynthesis and shine your UV torch to reveal hidden wonders.
