Learners model the Sun-Earth-Moon system to show what causes the Moon's appearance to change when viewed from the Earth.

In this demonstration/experiment, learners discover that different colors and materials (metals, fabrics, paints) radiate different amounts of energy and therefore, cool at different rates.

In this chemistry lab activity, learners model the colors of fireworks by burning metallic solutions in a flame and observing the different colors produced.

Learners observe two joined glass tubes containing a conductive salt solution. Electrodes are passing an electric current through the water.

Learners mix a solution containing luminol and copper with a fake blood solution. A chemical reaction between the luminol solution and fake blood (hydrogen peroxide) show learners a blue glow.

In this activity, learners discover that nanoparticles of gold can appear red, orange or even blue. They learn that a material can act differently when it’s nanometer-sized.

In this activity about the solar system, learners use various light sources to examine ice with different components to understand how NASA studies planets and moons from space.
