Science museums tell stories about nature and the phenomena which shape our daily lives.

Moreover, they provide the visitors with reasonable and reliable explanations about all kinds of phenomena, simple and complex and helps visitors to appreciate logic and the need for systematic thought and belief. This project has been developed to be a source of curiosity about the past, present and future visions of science and technology and attract people of all ages to the world of science. It would play a key role for the country in improving public perception of science, contributing to a positive evaluation of science and its technological developments. In addition, the museum would also be a science hub to host all the interactive and educational programs of science and technology through different workshops, seminars, science fairs etc. that would help people to understand different scientific concepts linked to the present day and propose steps for integrating them into the culture.
