Physics can be scary, especially for young people encountering its principles for the first time at an educational level.

But the Kidspace Children's Museum's newest expansion, the Robert & Mary Galvin Physics Forest, aims to take some of that fear away by featuring interactive exhibits that can prove that physics has its fun side. It's also going to be part of Pasadena's ArtNight on Oct. 12.

The forest, which opened during the summer, allows families to play with things like water bottle rockets, makeshift mini roller-coasters and air cannons to get the message across. Patch traveled through the forest and came away with this photo gallery. Enjoy the photos, and upload your own if you want to share!
