We will have demonstrations, real-life researchers into dark matter ready to answer your questions and an opportunity to have a quick tour of the telescopes we have on site (and a peek at the night sky if the weather permits). Anyone from 9 to 99 will have something to see and do, as they learn about how dark matter is searched for and why physicists think it exists in the first place.
