By force of circumstance
Catching your feet in the carpet, losing your balance, trying to catch yourself and ending up rolling on the floor. It's probably already happened to you. But do you know what causes it, apart from clumsiness? Well, a physical phenomenon that is omnipresent in our lives: the force of gravity.
How can we explain the cause of falling bodies? Our understanding of gravity has evolved since Antiquity, underpinned by the great names in the history of science, from Aristotle to Einstein. These scientists accompanied their ideas with famous experiments: Galileo and his inclined plane, Newton and his apple, Foucault and his pendulum, and it is through these experiments that the exhibition invites you to explore.
There's nothing like interactive elements: inclined planes, pendulums, gyroscopes and other spinning tops to illustrate the forces that make people fall, turn or roll... in short, to help you understand a phenomenon and have a good scientific time!
