Science Express
Science Express is a unique mobile science exhibition mounted on a 16-coach, AC train, travelling across India since 2007. Science Express showcased the fascinating world of science, groundbreaking discoveries, cutting-edge science & future-oriented technologies for initial 4 years. In 2012, Science Express was redesigned on the theme 'Biodiversity' and for 3 years it was running as Science Express Biodiversity Special (SEBS), aimed at creating awareness on Biodiversity of India. Science Express has covered over 122,000 km across the country, receiving more than 1.33 crore (13.3 million) visitors at its 391 halts, over 1,404 days. It has thus become the largest, longest running and most visited mobile science exhibition, probably in the world and has created several records in its wake. The next phase of Science Express is soon coming up as Climate Change Special. More information on www.sciencexpress.in
