The Art of Isolation
Explore quantum physics in one of the 'quietest' environments in the world.
Welcome
Have you ever wondered if you can take a picture of a single atom? Or if it’s possible to create the coldest temperatures in the Universe…here on Earth? At the Art of Isolation exhibit, visitors can explore how some of the most sensitive experiments in the world are performed with hands-on activities and working demos exploring different aspects of quantum mechanics and nanotechnology. Come and join us to try these and other interactive exhibits and learn about one of the quietest places on Earth.
Hands On at our Stand
