Inspired by the SpaceX Mars program, MARABOLA is a toy device that simulates a miniature Martian gravity environment for playful science experiments at home.

Using electromagnetism (a Hall element and custom PCB), the toy bends a regular parabola into the "Marabola" — letting curious adventurers feel, rather than just read about, how different gravity reshapes the way objects move and play.
