Hundreds of parents and children flocked to the Edmond J. Safra campus at Givat Ram last Thursday to see Einstein's telescope and to take part in the ''Night of Scientists'' event. The event was organized by the Hebrew University's Authority for Community and Youth with backing from the European Union.
The program, designed to give the participants a glimpse of the varied facets of the world of science, featured scientific demonstrations, exhibits, lectures and tours for the public.
Among the many activities, visitors were able to observe the heavens through telescopes – one of which belonged to Albert Einstein, participate in workshops for scientific crime investigation and disease identification, join tours of laboratories and of the university’s fossil and geological collections, and attend scientific presentations and lectures.
