Join Lightwave scientists to find out how you can see yourself an infinite number of times, and dance with Pepper's ghost to learn about how we use reflections in our research and our day-to-day lives.

Let the Lightwave team show you around our infinity mirror and giant Pepper's ghost! We'll explain how we use reflections to make these amazing experiments work! If you enjoy them, you can even build your own kaleidoscope and create your own textile art piece while finding out more about photonic chips and fibre optics!
