Planetarium A 30-seat hollow sphere. During term time we run themed programmes for primary and secondary schools, and colleges. Techniquest is the UK's leading Science Discovery Centre. Then there's a Planetarium, a Lab, a Discovery Room, and a hi-tech Science Theatre. Techniquest is a great family outing, and also an excellent educational visit.
Schools attend our special programmes during term time.
Our Aims Techniquest's goal is to develop people's understanding and appreciation of science. It is aimed at both educational groups and leisure visitors, and operates a vigorous outreach programme in addition to the facilities of the building in Cardiff Bay. Techniquest develops, designs and fabricates almost all of its own exhibits. All graphics and publications are also designed in-house. Over 160 exhibits invite visitors to explore scientific phenomena in an enjoyable, safe manner.
