At the workshop to be held during Science and Technology Week, we’ll be learning about Isaac Newton and the Law of Action and Reaction. After first chatting about examples of the Law of Action and Reaction taken from real life, we’ll learn the working principle of rockets, design a rocket that works using this principle, and observe how a rocket’s speed can change depending upon how much weight it carries.

This is one of Stanisław Chlebowski’s larger canvasses dealing with themes other than battles; only Ottoman Life at the Sweet Waters now at the Istanbul Military Museum can compare with it in size.

The Captive Sultan

The war fought by the Greeks to shake off the Turkish yoke was closely observed around Europe and, this being the era of romanticism, the events taking place around Greece between 1821 and 1832 became a symbol for national liberation struggle.
