Physics explained to children

[29-06-2017]

On Saturday June 25th, three of our PhD students explained physics to children age 6-12 during the Klokhuis Question Day at the NEMO Science Museum in Amsterdam. 

The national tv show Klokhuis yearly organises this event. PhD students Gesa Welker (Leiden), Julia Cramer (QuTech) and Floris Kalff (Delft/QN) answered dozens of physics-related questions like 'why is the sky blue'? The children -as well as the PhD students- enjoyed it very much.

Earlier that week, in order to draw more attention for the Klokhuis Question Day, Julia Cramer answered similar questions during the tv show RTL Late Night.
