About this event
This special event allows children and citizens of Higashiyamato City to learn cutting-edge science directly from Japan's leading researchers. Countless tiny, invisible particles called "neutrinos" exist in the universe, and research on them is progressing worldwide as crucial work to unlock the mysteries of the origin of the universe and the birth of life. In this event, researchers active at the world's state-of-the-art research facility "J-PARC" will serve as guest lecturers, explaining difficult science in an easy-to-understand manner using videos and illustrations so that even children can comprehend it. Furthermore, it offers a valuable opportunity to interact directly with scientists through cross-talk sessions with the Mayor and the Superintendent of Education, as well as a Q&A corner. Science is not just in textbooks; it turns into a dream the moment you encounter the "real thing." Through this experience, the event aims to deepen children's interest in science and inspire them to become future researchers and engineers. Direct interaction with leading researchers is expected to enhance children's interest in science. The theme for this event is "The Beginning of the Universe." Enjoy a day where parents and children can learn, marvel, and be inspired together.
