Це Амі – андроїдка із силіконовим обличчям і черепом, виготовленим із металу та пластику. Її голова з очима, що гіпнотизують, і темно-сірим кольором шкіри говорить про майбутнє технологій. Чи так виглядатимуть інтерфейси комп'ютерів на космічних станціях? А може, така помічниця стоятиме в кожному домі, аби полегшити повсякденне життя? 
Витончена посмішка та проникливий погляд андроїдки зачаровують. Її обличчя, хоч і штучне, але надзвичайно реалістичне та промовисте. За допомогою 27 моторчиків вона здатна імітувати рухи людського обличчя: примружуватися, моргати, морщити ніс, посміхатися, позіхати та навіть виражати цілу гаму емоцій – від радості до гніву і страху. 
Мозок Амі оснащений штучним інтелектом, тому вона може говорити на будь-які теми. Рухи її вуст ідеально синхронізовані зі словами, які вона вимовляє. Краще, ніж у більшості фільмів з дубляжем! Складається враження, що вона має власну свідомість та проявляє свої емоції. 
Не пропустіть можливість зустрітися з Амі особисто. Поспілкуйтеся з одним із найбільш просунутих роботів у світі та відкрийте для себе можливості майбутнього.

Robot Ami

Тісно, правда? Це кабіна екіпажу справжнього космічного корабля. Того самого, на якому в 1978 році полетів у космос перший польський космонавт – Мирослав Гермашевський. У кабіні могли розміститися дві людини – там були крісла, системи управління та життєзабезпечення, регулювання температури та складу атмосфери, обладнання для спостереження та радіозв'язку, санітарна система, контейнери з водою та їжею, а також набори для виживання на випадок посадки в непередбаченому місці. Місія «Союз 30» тривала загалом 7 днів, 22 години, 2 хвилини і 59 секунд. За цей час космонавти облетіли Землю 126 разів. Під час повернення капсула увійшла в атмосферу зі швидкістю, в 35 разів вищою за швидкість звуку, а її зовнішній захисний шар нагрівся до 1750 °C.

Видовищні наукові шоу, короткі презентації та дискусії, які є невід’ємною частиною розвитку науки. Важливим місцем під час Наукового пікніка є сцена. Запрошуємо вас!

Program Sceny

A zone where you will find the tents of the Polish Radio, the Copernicus Science Centre and the Ministry of Science and Higher Education and the Ministry of National Education.

STREFA A – Organisers' Zone

The biggest zone at this year's Picnic! The attractions are varied, and at any time you can take a break from experimenting and relax in the special areas. 
The youngest visitors will get an opportunity to carry out many experiments on their own – they will control robots and hydrogen cars, see how chestnut bark glows under UV light and learn how to make chalk from their own breath to write on the blackboard. They will learn the difference between a boiled egg and a raw one and find out why oil floats on the water and whether it really is 'fair'. 
Car enthusiasts will get to jump into a car that can travel 2112 kilometres on one litre of petrol, and train lovers will watch a model and start a locomotive by pedalling on a bike. You will also get to sit in the glider cockpit and see what it is like. 
At many of the booths, you will create hand-made works, including paper, a hay painting, a bowl made of egg skewers, a toy with movable wings, a projector made of recycled materials and a smartphone, gingerbread with icing and a security with personalised safety features and graphics. 
You will learn the ins and outs of police officers' work. You will see police cars, motorbikes and special vehicles and take a bike permit test. In the forensic laboratory, you will see the effect of luminol in contact with traces of blood. You will also test demonstration prison bars and try to detect a cut.

STREFA B - Family Zone 

If you want to experiment with non-Newtonian liquid, isolate DNA, build a volcano, smash roses frozen in liquid nitrogen, admire a chemical garden and make elephant toothpaste, be sure to check this zone out. 
In the Cult Experiment Zone you will see impressive demonstrations and spectacular chemical reactions. You will learn how a perfume sprayer works, why paint evenly coats a wall and how a strong wind can tear off a roof. You will produce green hydrogen – the fuel of the future and build your own storm detector. 
You will also check out the Fire Brigade stand, where you will navigate a maze in a smoke-filled building, test your fire hose handling skills and create plenty of foam.

Strefa C - Cult Experimentation Zone

Space observation and exploration now have their own zone at the Science Picnic. Come and see this year’s novelty. 
You will learn about the Polish space sector. You will talk to experts and recreate the experiments performed by Dr. Sławosz Uznański-Wiśniewski during the IGNIS mission aboard the International Space Station. You will meet the analogue astronauts, check out the equipment from their base, get to experience their suits and try something from their cosmic diet – edible insects. 
You will find out how to grow plants in space. You will learn about hydroponics and the Veggie system providing fresh vegetables to astronauts aboard the ISS. You will see how plants grow without soil and what challenges space gardeners face. 
You will learn about the history of the smallest Polish satellite – HYPE. You will discover its modules, communication system and the dangers of space. You will see how remote sensing methods are helping us discover exoplanets and search their atmospheres for signs of life. 
You will learn how to observe the sky in a city full of lights. You will learn about the lamps that reduce light pollution and how proper lighting helps protect the night sky. You will find out how many kilometres a light year is, estimate the distances between stars, learn what comets are made of and why Pluto is no longer a planet. 
Through a specialised telescope, you will observe phenomena taking place on the Sun – explosions, flares and spots. You will talk to astrophotographers, watch their work and find out that spectacular photographs of the sky can also be taken by amateurs.

STREFA D –  Cosmic Zone

Check it out if you like history, museums and social sciences. 
We will take you on a journey to the distant past. You will discover fossils from hundreds of millions of years ago and learn to discern the age of the rocks. You will learn the story of the birth of the dinosaurs and the first marine reptiles. You will take on the role of palaeontologists – cleaning real fossils, matching the pieces, examining the surrounding rocks and trying to recreate the appearance and way of life of an ancient animal. You will sift through the sand and search for hidden fossils. 
You will see ancient ceramics and analyse how vessel forms and ornamental motifs have changed. You will learn about the techniques used since the Stone Age and the variety of designs. You will also discover African textiles and the natural dyes used to make them.
