Universe (Danish amusement park)

Universe (formerly Danfoss Universe) is a danish amusement park and science park on the island of Als in Southern Jutland. Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary opened the Park May 5, 2005. The park's purpose is to inspire children and adults with science, technology and entrepreneurship.[1]

Universe is noticeably different from other Danish amusement parks in the fact that learning is the linchpin for all the rides, experiences and amusements. The park motto is "Universe - where fun is a science".

A new feature in 2014 is the outdoor Pixelineland, where you can meet the popular danish childrens games character Pixeline. Here you explore the city, Pixelineland, which offers interactive games with Pixelines friends, as well as a large playground. Also new in 2014 is the park's Science Circus, where you can experience a good mix of fire, explosions and liquid nitrogen. In addition you can drive on Segways, lift a car, test yourself in the many experiments that are found in Explorama, dig excavations, experience the wild forces of nature in the Blue Cube and lots more. Besides the park, there is also a museum that shows how Danfoss founder Mads Clausen lived and invented Danfoss.

The reason for establishing the park was to create a space where everyone can get an experience and learn about scientific phenomena. Universe is a Danish amusement park, where visitors learn about science through activities, experience, and acquire knowledge about the world in which it occurs.
