Back to Naples, in the spaces of Città della Scienza, the new edition of Remote Future, the event which for 36 years has been a showcase of the skills and excellence of the research world, bringing science and technological innovation closer to generations of students, young professionals and enthusiasts.
The National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology (INGV) will be among the protagonists of the event which this year, with its appointments scheduled from 22 to 27 November, will be structured around the theme "Equilibrium".
INGV researchers will welcome visitors with interactive games, displays, models and exhibits to learn about natural hazards and discover the secrets of our planet together.

How does the Universe work? What are the physical laws that we know that regulate its operation? Is the Universe really expanding and what is really meant by the expansion of the Universe? Contemporary research has contributed to greatly enriching our knowledge thanks, for example, to important new space missions, innovative telescopes and ever more efficient observation techniques from the ground. By moving the hands towards and away from one of the interactive exhibits on display, the visitor will be able to travel through time on cosmic scales: by bringing the hands together he will "compress" the universe until the hands of the cosmic clock reach the Big Bang. Instead, it will be enough to remove them to start its expansion. But let's start from the beginning, from our home: the Earth. Ours is a beautiful planet, complex but also very delicate and fragile. The ecosystems, landscapes and scenarios that appear before our eyes from the Pole to the Equator are very different and all equally fascinating. Thanks to Earth observation satellites we can monitor and study the state of health of the planet and record changes, especially climatic ones, to try to combat them. We will also discover how the Earth appears seen from space, immersing ourselves in the fascinating journey of electromagnetic wave beams which, interacting with the earth's surface, tell of volcanic areas and areas affected by active tectonic structures.

Georisk is a new way for the fourth and fifth classes of primary school and first grade secondary school to learn, by playing, to mitigate natural risks with differentiated paths in order to enhance environmental education with an immediate approach, focused on acquiring the "Good practices" of protection and prevention in the event of an earthquake, landslide and flood through the board game Risk Detective and the App Save Yourself.

GeoQuest TROPOMAG is an approach to phenomena related to the possible effects of changes in the earth's magnetic field on the atmosphere and climate, through the educational game of a digital team adventure using smartphones and following alternative paths chosen by the players. You will discover with us a new way of learning for all secondary school classes through the GeoQuest Engine which will make the classes experience the virtual adventure of the role-playing game "TROPOMAG (Influence of geomagnetic storms on the TROPOsphere dynamics: Can the Earth's MAGnetic field be considered a proxy of climate changes?)”.

Starting from the observation of the global imbalances that make the Earth dynamic, let's discover together, step by step and through interactive laboratories, drones, scientific demonstrations, models, rocks and videos, the manifestations of the earth's dynamics in Italy and in Campania, home to active volcanoes and strong earthquakes.
Not only crust and mantle: even the earth's atmosphere is home to imbalances. Climate change leads to irreversible transformations of the environment. With a series of graphic works created by students of an art school, we address some central themes of the climate emergency: the greenhouse effect, global warming, rising sea levels, sustainable development.
And again, how much do you know about the acidity and salinity of the water? Taste various types of mineral waters, and sort them according to your perception of acidity and salinity.
And, therefore, all to observe our images taken by the thermal camera, the sampling of the gases on a model of volcanic fumarole and with the seismograph the tremor of the ground caused by our movements.
The Earth is a world to be explored while having fun, and INGV researchers will accompany you on this journey.
exhibit | BALANCE

with
-> YOCOCU APS, Fondazione Territorio Italia e INGV
The installation aims to explain the interaction between mankind and ecosystems using which
example the person-plant relationship.
Through 3 workstations the direct and indirect interactions of mankind on plants are told, both
negative than positive. Each station consists of a plant placed in front of an explanatory panel
which will provide the visitor with instructions to activate the sensors and consequently receive output from the
plant itself, such as sounds, lights, chromatic changes of the ground.
The development of an ecosystem, i.e. the growth of the plant, can be varied by a set of factors
such as the presence of nutrients and the temperature, which become decisive in defining the
species composition and ecosystem diversity. The change of any of these factors
changes the abundance of species and genotypes in a habitat.
The installation intends to present some physical and chemical disturbances by focusing on the problems
visitor's day-to-day. Natural processes are indicators of the state of the environment: desertification,
desert lichen, leaf color, withering and biological diversity are all negative expressions of
our interaction with the plant.
