Located in the capital, Stockholm, Sweden’s National Museum of Science and Technology—the Tekniska Museet—turns 100 this year. “Back in 1924, the country was among the poorest in Europe and needed to train more engineers to get industry going,” says Astrid Stenberg, project leader for visitor experience at the museum, which is run under government charter by a private foundation. “Today the Wisdome program comes at a time of huge challenges ahead,” she continues, referring to a decade-long joint initiative by five Swedish science museums to build state-of-the-art dome theaters. Showing immersive 3D visuals—everything from the latest satellite imagery of the solar system to specially made films explaining processes such as photosynthesis—these 360-degree cinemas are intended to wow a new generation of young Swedes and encourage them to study science when they’re older.
