Super
Science Saturday
Despite six inches of early season snow on the roads, 4,700
children, teachers, and parents attended Super Science Saturday
at the Mesa Lab on October 21. “The building’s
seams were busting, but the energy was wonderful,” says
EO’s Linda Carbone. Interest was so great that NCAR’s
science “wizards” performed an extra show and
the Science Store stayed open late.
An annual event, Super Science Saturday combines science
education with Halloween fun. The theme this year was “A
New Light on Science,” with demonstrations of the principles
of infrared and ultraviolet light, gamma rays,
X-rays, and more.
