Top Secret: License to Spy

Through Sunday, April 16
Discovery Place Science

Are you the next James (or Jane) Bond?

Join us at Discovery Place Science and find out when you go undercover and enter a world of coded messages and satellite surveillance. Top Secret: License to Spy features life-like sets and activities based on a James Bond-style fantasy of exotic locations and high-tech equipment.

Grab your friends and family to discover the science and technology behind the world of spies and espionage and see if you’ve got what it takes to determine which suspect can be implicated in the crime.

Here’s a look at some of the science you’ll explore on your mission:

Uncovering a radio bug with an oscilloscope
Using lasers to monitor conversations
Positioning a satellite correctly to receive a message

Come and put your observation and problem-solving skills to the test!
Top Secret: License to Spy is created by Scitech Discovery Centre, Perth, Australia, and produced by Imagine Exhibitions, Inc.
