The regional science centre Bhopal was opened on 12th
January 1995 by the then president of India late Shankar Dayal Sharma. This
center is one of the 25 constitute units of National Council of Science
Museum(NCSM) which is an autonomous science organization under the ministry of
culture, Govt. of India, engaged in popularizing Science and Technology amongst
student in particular and the masses in General, through a wide range of
activities and interactive programs.
The Centre has over 266 science
exhibits spanning across a wide range of scientific disciplines. Most of the
exhibits are interactive. The 5-acre RSCB campus includes a 3-acre Science
Park, which contains over 60 exhibits such as pulley demonstrations,
a windmill and solar-powered devices. The campus also houses a small Dinosaur
Park and a zoo.

The Atmosphere is the mixture of gasses like nitrogen,
Oxygen, hydrogen, helium, krypton, xenon etc. It’s also having a layer of Ozone
which protects our life from unwanted radiations and UV rays and water vapors.
Here are many models that can tell all facts with fun; it’s
very interesting to understand how our atmosphere works? , what’s it have? How
it old? What are future of atmosphere and much more?
A visit to this gallery will also help you to understand the
cycles of atmosphere, air as cushion, the power of air, resistance air
pollution, ozone depletion, atmosphere and setup of a weather station.
- Models to understand energy
Life of earth is driven by energy. Every action of any kinds
needs energy to make it happen, sun is the primary source of energy in earth,
it’s produced 77 billion megatons of energy every second.
The exhibit “Sun the source of all energies”
dwells into the fascinating energy facts of sun.
Science park |
A series of interactive exhibits explain different forms of
energy conversions, they also explains how energy is harnessed from the vast
electromagnetic spectrum ranging from gamma to Radio rays emitted by sun. Interact
with a working model of nuclear reactor and a hydroelectric turbine here.
Explore how electricity is generated, transmitted and distributed to us.
