Last night, the Ministry of Science, Technology & Space in conjunction with the the European Union, held its annual Night of Scientists, an event celebrating Israel’s advanced research and technology. This year’s theme – “Touching the Stars” — is very much in keeping with Yom Kippur and the notion of purity. Is there anything more pure than light? 

On Night of Scientists, research institutions and science museums around Israel — from Kiryat Shmona to Eilat — open their doors to the public and offer eye-level meetings with scientists and scientists, lab tours, lectures, concerts, experiments, workshops and experiential science activities for children and adults alike.
