    Children will enjoy the location. We can demonstrate a variety of scientific concepts. One of the shows is titled "Science Experiment," and the other is titled "Tara Mandal." They both excel. Only 30 RS and 10 RS for shows are charged for tickets. A scientific museum is a must-see for kids.

    Amazing. It's just amazing that a small town like Palampur would have such a great place for the young and old alike. A reconnect with science and elements of Earth, it was a great experience. We just cruised through as it was a last minute stop, but I would recommend everyone to come with some time on their hands so that kids can understand the basic scientific principles behind all the amazing interactive displays. Kudos to the government and the administration for such a wonderful place. IT IS A MUST VISIT.

    It’s a wonderful place for Science enthusiasts and children. The whole complex is beautiful and maintained well. All the exhibits were working with detailed explanation and interesting anecdotes which arouses viewers curiosity. It also has a 3D theatre which shows short science films. Overall a must visit place in Palampur with family. Keep atleast 2 hours aside for this place.

    Must visit place for all kids and science enthusiasts. I took my kid here after repeated requests because he liked the Kurukshetra science city very much. Overall, it is a great addition for the people of the area.

    Hi guys welcome to ☺️Palampur Science Centre, the first Science Centre of Himachal Pradesh was inaugurated by Shri Anurag Thakur, Hon’ble Union Cabinet Minister for Information & Broadcasting and Youth Affairs & Sports, Government of India on May 14, 2022 in the august presence of Shri Kishan Kapoor, Hon’ble Member of Parliament (Kangra LS), Shri Ashish Butail, Hon’ble Member of Legislative Assembly, Palampur and Smt. Poonam Bali, Mayor, Palampur Municipal Corporation. Among other dignitaries present on this occasion were Ms. Lily Pandeya, Joint Secretary, Ministry of Culture; Shri A. D. Choudhury, Director General, National Council of Science Museums (NCSM); Shri D. Rama Sarma, Director, National Science Centre, Delhi and Shri Abhishek Narang, Deputy Secretary, Ministry of Culture, Govt. of India. In his inaugural address, Shri Thakur implored all the students of Himachal Pradesh to compulsorily visit Palampur Science Centre so as to inculcate scientific temperament. He cited example of sportsmen to bring home the point, he further added that, without the knowledge of science even sportsmen can’t achieve optimum results. He also advised National Council of Science Museums, to keep adding newer facilities to the centre, one such addition could be Planetarium. National Council of Science Museums (NCSM), an autonomous organization under the Ministry of Culture, Govt. of India, has developed the centre through the Scheme for Promotion of Culture of Science (SPoCS). A joint initiative of the Central Government and the Himachal Pradesh government, the project costed Rs. 9.0 crores. Main aim behind development of such centres is to portray the growth of science and technology and their application in industry and human welfare, with a view to develop scientific attitude and temper in the country as also to conduct research in science and technology in the areas pertaining to the activities of the Council. Currently, 25 Science Museums/Science Centres in the country are functioning under the administrative control of National Council of Science Museums (NCSM). NCSM in collaboration with State Governments and UTs has already set up 22 Science Centres and handed over to respective State Government for subsequent operation and maintenance. The Science centre will be maintained and run by National Council of Science Museums, Kolkata, through its north zone headquarter, National Science Centre, Delhi. Palampur Science Centre, has star attraction in the form of a thematic gallery titled β€˜Untamed Earth’ that houses around 25 interactive exhibits. This has been specifically conceptualised and curated keeping in view the sensitive Himalayan belt, located at the juncture of two active tectonic plates. Himachal Pradesh is prone to seismic activities of varying intensities resulting in natural events/disasters like landslides, flash floods, avalanches, forest fires etc. that can have devastating effect on life & property. One can explore and witness some of these incredible and awful phenomena the Earth has to offer - along with the science behind them through these interactive exhibits. Other facilities of the centre are Science Park, Innovation Hub, Portable Planetarium and Fun Science Gallery. The centre has 3000 sq mtr of built up area and 2500 sq mtr of exhibition space. The centre also has provision to house temporary exhibition. At present the exhibition on β€˜Digital India’ is put on display. Astronomy and astrophysics has sparked new zeal and interest among millennials, thanks to yeomen achievements of India in Space Sciences. Unique portable planetarium, which can accommodate around 25 students at a time, will provide rudimentary knowledge related to Astronomy & Space Science and also be handy in explaining science behind celestial phenomenon, night sky, eclipses etc. Thankyou so muchπŸ’–
