MIGA Science Center in Chile officially launches the second chapter of its animated series

This series, aimed at bringing scientific concepts to the general public, especially to the youngest, is part of the institute’s efforts to promote scientific dissemination on issues related to sustainability and clean energy.

The event was welcomed by Mauricio Isaacs, director of the MIGA Millennium Institute, who emphasized the importance of this type of initiative as a tool to bring science closer to everyone, including the youngest children. In his remarks, Isaacs emphasized that “actions like this not only allow us to educate, but also to inspire new generations to take an interest in science and its role in solving global problems such as the climate crisis”.

Pamela Delgado, executive director of MIGA, also had a relevant intervention during the launch, where she presented the technical aspects of the series and the evolution of its production. Delgado pointed out that this initiative has the support of sponsors such as Guacolda Energía and RWE, which has made it possible to develop a high quality animation that combines entertainment with the transmission of key scientific concepts.

The new chapter, entitled “Looking for Uncle Hydro,” introduces a new story and an additional character, Uncle Hydro. The plot follows the protagonist Draco, an ammonia-ammonia molecule that wants to become “green” in order to contribute to the decontamination of the planet. On his journey, Draco embarks on a search for his Uncle Hydro, who has already achieved his goal of becoming green hydrogen, a crucial element in the fight against climate change.

The series, in addition to having an educational and attractive narrative, includes the participation of renowned musician Pablo Ilabaca, former member of the Chilean band Chancho en Piedra and responsible for some of the music of the well-known series 31 minutos. Ilabaca has contributed musically to the project, reinforcing the appeal of the series for children and young people.

This project, produced in conjunction with Felicidad Pública and Fluor Films, seeks to introduce in a didactic way fundamental concepts such as hydrogen and green ammonia ammonia, which are key in the fight against pollution and the transition to clean energy. The first two episodes of the series will be available on MIGA’s YouTube channel, and the initial season is expected to feature a total of six episodes.

With this animated series, the MIGA Millennium Institute reaffirms its commitment to scientific dissemination and environmental education, using creative and accessible means to contribute to raising awareness of the importance of clean energy and sustainability.
