Hi, I was wondering if you could give me any information about the Speed: Science in Motion event as we are contemplating hosting an event showing the science behind cars & fast auto-mobiles. Is there any more information in terms of what activities or exhibitions and events Science Works did for this event in 2003? kinda Regards, Damian

Hi Damian - we've checked with the exhibitions crew at Scienceworks on this question, and the response is as follows:

The exhibition 'Speed-Science in Motion' was developed by Scitech in Perth. The link here  has details relating to the exhibition and the relevant contact details if Damian is interested in pursuing it. 

Hope this helps!
