STEAM education requires practical experiments and interactive visual demonstrations to interest today's youth: this apparatus, named "TuBora" after the strong wind "Bora" typical of our city Trieste, is built from simple laser-cut plywood, and it will allow students and kids to experiment with the principles of flight physics and aerodynamics, in an interactive way, building and testing small parachutes.
