Thank you to all the young explorers who participated in our festival competitions! It was very exciting to see your creativity and diligence.
Our first competition was "Our Wonderful Universe", in which the children had the opportunity to show their talent for drawing. They created amazing drawings reflecting the beauty and mystery of the cosmos.
The second competition, Children's Questions to NASA and CERN, allowed us to enjoy the curiosity and ingenuity of the children. They presented questions related to space exploration and scientific discovery, showing their eagerness to learn even more about the mysteries of the Universe.
