Abstract
During "Time Machines", a pop exhibition at Palazzo Esposizioni Roma, in Italy (Nov 2023 - March 2024) celebrating the wonders of the Universe, we feature interactive displays and activities to explore the mysteries of space and time, including an actual arcade with 80s-style video games. Three arcade-style video games were created using Scratch, a block-based visual programming language aimed primarily at children, developed by MIT: Asteronoids, Planetris, and AstroPacman. The poster was selected and presented at the Communicating Astronomy with the Public (CAP) Conference, the only large-scale, international conference for astronomy communication (June 24-28 2024).
