Sergio Rossi

Water: the world's strangest substance!

workshop ages 10-13 – 60 minutes; 25 participants

Water is the most widely used substance in the world, but are you sure you really know it? The best way to find it out is to experiment with it! Archimedes knew this very well. By playing with water, he made discoveries that still leave us gaping. With our hands soaking, we will have fun and put some of this great inventor's experiments into practice.

Sergio Rossi is a physicist, writer, editor and scientific popularizer. His publications include: Quando si accesero le stelle (Feltrinelli, 2022), Ho trovato un dinosauro! (Feltrinelli, 2022). With Nikola Tesla (BeccoGiallo, 2019) he won the 2019 Dosi Prize for Science Communication and with Girotondo (Il Castoro, 2020) the Andersen Award for best comic book. In 2023 SOS acqua (Einaudi Ragazzi) and Prime lezioni di fisica (Gribaudo) were published.
