"Explorador" is another science Museum of Paris, although in the French capital their and so many. It is located in the South Eastern suburb of Vitry-sur-Seine, according to the Russian scale very near the center. But to go out worth it, especially with children.

One of the originators of "Exploradome" was a French physicist Gary Delikat, a passionate advocate of new methods of teaching natural Sciences in school. Trying to find confirmation of his ideas, he was in the eighties of the last century, traveled all natural science museums in the USA and became friends with Frank Oppenheimer – the younger brother of "father of the atomic bomb" Robert Oppenheimer. Frank also contributed to the creation of nuclear weapons, but after the war was known as a Communist, and for many years was unable to work in the specialty. When the atmosphere became more relaxed, he founded in San Francisco "Exploration" – an interactive science Museum. After seeing about a thousand pieces of Exploranium", Gary Delikat was delighted: it was what he was looking for. Such a Museum should appear on the banks of the Seine!

"Explorador" opened in 1998. The basis for interactive objects, designed and created in San Francisco by American specialists "Explorium" (although, of course, there is here and now of its own design). But does the value where the exposition? The universal language of science.

In this Museum, where children lead since the age of four, all can be touched by hands. Moreover, there are prohibited items and devices not touch! Visitors are offered to spend most of these sixty-scientific experiments – from classic optical illusions to experiment with modern equipment. In "Robot club"," children create a robot, able to swim, walk and jump. In "Game design club design and program video games. In section flying machines built light aircraft, which he returns to his master.

In addition to the permanent exhibition in the "Exploradome" one after the other are a variety of exhibitions. Chemistry in everyday life, the laws of physics in the circus, new energies, materials for the future – that's their theme. The exhibitions are quite practical in nature: children from four years, for example, show how to do computer animation.

The hottest period in Exploradome" in the school holidays when kids are flocking here in droves. But the Museum goes to the children: the villagers know green bus"exploratorily" riding across the schools with lectures, workshops and virtual experiments.
