Physics Lab

Physics is not only about formulas and theory – it is a way to understand what is going on around us. Why a ball bounces, how light works, or what keeps planets in the sky. Everything has a reason, and when we dive into it, we realize that physics can actually be fun and full of surprises. You can experience it firsthand here – visually, playfully, and without any boredom.

The Physics Lab in SFÉRA is a place where physics is taught practically, interactively, and with curiosity. Through experiments, models, and exploration of the world around us, we make the laws of nature clear and engaging for both children and adults. From optics and waves, through energy and magnetic poles, to the microcosmos and the universe– you can truly experience physics up close.
