Pioneers: Gassed Up Science Shows
This August, every Thursday, ignite your passion for flight with a high-octane adventure into the world of engines and propulsion!
Join us for explosive live science shows where you’ll witness the raw power of combustion, the secrets of jet thrust, and the science that makes the impossible take flight.
Feel the roar of jet engines—and get up close with our museum’s legendary engine collection, including marvels that changed aviation history!
See gases in action with thrilling experiments—discover how thrust defies gravity and propels us forward!
Be inspired by the pioneers who pushed boundaries—like Sir Sydney Camm, whose revolutionary V/STOL (Vertical/Short Take-Off & Landing) designs paved the way for aircraft like the legendary Hawker Harrier.
Imagine what you could create next!
Perfect for future engineers, aviation dreamers, and anyone who loves explosive science in action. Don’t just learn about innovation—get ready to chase it!
