But no matter what age you are, you'll be fascinated by the 'please touch' exhibits. Questacon is the only place in Australia where you can free fall for six metres and take the whole family on a virtual roller coaster ride. Questacon is known by kids throughout Australia as the place where science and technology comes to life. Visitors have fun with hands-on science exhibits on a journey of discovery through 6 different exhibition galleries. Science drama unfolds in the theatre every day too.
