Alba Mission: Scientific Challenge at the Synchrotron

"Things happen in the world that go unnoticed by our eyes. And only science is able to show them to us"

The 5th and 6th grade students have embarked on an adventure into the unknown. An experience that will definitely change their view of the world and science.

The Mission Alba it is divided into four stages: Matter, Force, Energy and Light. Each month, and until the month of May, one of the courses is responsible for carrying out an experiment with the tutor. They develop hypotheses and, through observation, must reach conclusions. And choose which solution is the correct one of the two possible options, justifying why they think that is the correct one.

Through an online platform where more than 100 schools across Catalonia are registered, they are completing the experiments. If they all get it right, there are several rewards and as a final prize the school will be entered into a draw to receive a visit from a researcher in the classroom.
