In the 1970s, Dr. Gerhard Stroink started developing interactive science exhibits and demonstrations as part of Dalhousie University’s open house events. So popular with the public, Dr. Richard Goldbloom, and local entrepreneur, Liz Crocker joined forces with Stroink, with the idea of establishing a true science centre, where the wonders of STEAM could take permanent residence in the hearts and minds of Nova Scotians.

The Discovery Center was one of the most interactive places I've been so far !! I find it very interesting that they used the interaction as an incentive for learning, because the more attracted the child is to the activity, the more interest they will create in learning more about the subject. For me, the exhibition that caught my attention the most was the fossils. That's because I had no idea how big the animals were…there was a turtle's skull and a megalodon's tooth, among others. I was an amazing experiences !!

During the visit at the Discovery Center, the coolest things I saw was the device that measured reaction time and showed things for mental health and awareness about the amount of garbage in the sea.

The exhibit that caught my attention the most was the part that spoke a little about the human body, the exhibit that I spent the most time in that part was the reflection one, where a series of randomly round green circles would appear, and you had to flatten the fastest as possible to make the shortest time, my record was 0.28 I think milliseconds or seconds, I just know that the stopwatch was going very fast. I think that because I participate in kart races, that caught my attention.
