Fantastic Forces was developed for the Connect gallery at the National Museum of Scotland, their first permanent hands-on exhibition.

The 20 minute show is a whistle stop investigation of the forces found all around us and each experiment is linked to the iconic objects displayed within the gallery.

Highlights include launching Dolly the cloned sheep 20 feet into the air using a giant catapult. We then explain the forces behind the launch and her safe-ish return back to earth.

As well as scripting the show, providing the props and authoring the multimedia, we also provided presentation skills and facilitation training for the show presenters and Connect Visitor Assistants.

The show was launched during Science Week 2006.
