Indonesia Science Center

Indonesia Science Center, Science museum at Taman Mini Indonesia Indah, Jakarta, Indonesia

Pusat Peragaan Ilmu Pengetahuan dan Teknologi (PP-IPTEK) occupies a futuristic-style building of 24,000 m² on a 42,300 m² plot on the main axis of Taman Mini Indonesia Indah's eastern area, facing the Non-Aligned Countries Friendship Monument. Inside, 250 interactive exhibits can be touched, held and played, among them a flying bicycle, water rockets, a Van de Graaff generator and an earthquake simulator, plus an auditorium seating 130.

The idea came from Research and Technology Minister Bacharuddin Jusuf Habibie, and the center opened on 20 April 1991 in Terminal B of the Skylift-TMII on a 1,000 m² plot, inaugurated by President Soeharto. On 10 November 1995 it moved to a new 24,000 m² building on a 42,300 m² site on the main axis of eastern Taman Mini Indonesia Indah, facing the Non-Aligned Countries Friendship Monument. It now operates under the National Research and Innovation Agency (BRIN).

The facility carries its name from Indonesian, where it is known as Pusat Peragaan Ilmu Pengetahuan dan Teknologi. School groups from across the metropolitan area regularly use the rooms for project days, with teachers guiding students through experiments.

The building sits on the main axis of TMII's eastern area, facing the Non-Aligned Countries Friendship Monument, on a 42,300 m² plot with 24,000 m² of floor space. Exhibits are hands-on, so allow time to touch and play with the 250 demonstration tools. School groups from kindergarten to high school use science worksheets, and outreach programs bring portable equipment to malls, villages and schools.

A generator with an electric sphere creates voltages that make visitors' hair stand on end, while they themselves become part of the experiment. A bicycle device allows you to float through the room on a suspended cable, directly experiencing balance and gravity.
