St George’s Square in Valletta will host parts of an aircraft and an artistic maze at this year’s Science in the City festival. Lufthansa Technik Malta will be displaying a large model aircraft and real-sized sections while Logix Creative and DAAA Haus will be setting up a large labyrinth where people can explore various scientific concepts with an artistic twist.
Lufthansa Technik Malta will have a thruster, shark skin paint sample (a new innovation by Lufthansa soon to be painted on tomorrow’s planes), live non-destructive testing, a video showing how aircraft fly inside a tail cone, and how air samples are taken.
Visitors have a chance to win an Economy Class return flight to Frankfurt and a visit to the Lufthansa Flight Simulator station for two persons. The flights are being offered complimentary by Lufthansa German Airlines and the Flight Simulator visit by Lufthansa Technik Malta.
AMaze2 will display a particle accelerator at CERN, X-ray Crystallography, which is the way to make 3D models of molecules, and a tech-biogarden installation. The large labyrinth installation has been designed by Logix Creative and Daaa Haus for Science in the City, Valletta 2018 Foundation and Notte Bianca for visitors of all ages.
Science in the City will be held on September 26.
