Visitors observe three beakers. One beaker contains an egg immersed in vinegar. Visitors observe carbon dioxide gas escaping from the shell as the calcium carbonate reacts with the vinegar.

In this activity, learners use ABS pipe and an air leaf blower to make a strong shooting machine.

In this demonstration about momentum, use physics to distinguish between a hard-boiled egg and a raw egg without cracking them open.

In this activity, educators can demonstrate how the nanoscale arrangement of atoms dramatically impacts a material’s macroscale behavior.

In this activity, learners will build a design and build a place for pollinators to drink from.

Visitors observe a bottle with a balloon attached around the mouth. The bottle contains a solution of yeast, sugar, and water.

In this math-based activity, learners model the intensity of light at various distances from a light source, and understand how astronomers measure the amount of sunlight that hits our planet and othe

Learners can program a compass to draw a circle by itself using a Pico Cricket, some Legos, and lots of tape! Pico Cricket is required.

In this activity, learners will discover what it takes to be a frog. By dressing up like one, learners can visualize how each part of the frog plays an important role in surviving its habitat.

In this activity, learners explore deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), a nanoscale structure that occurs in nature.

In this physics demonstration, learners are challenged to break a raw egg just by squeezing it. Learners will be shocked by their inability to complete the deceivingly simple challenge.

In this activity, learners find out why some mineral sunblock rubs in clear. Learners compare nano and non-nano sunblocks and discover how particle size affects visibility.

This fun and simple hands-on astronomy activity lets learners explore what happens when a star explodes.

Many germs spread by our hands, and often times, people don't wash their hands well enough to get rid of germs.

In this activity, learners will imagine the challenges and opportunities of asteroid mining.

In this activity, learners discover that a material can act differently when it's nanometer-sized.

In this Engineering Design Challenge activity, learners will use balloons to investigate how a multi-stage rocket, like that used in the Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) mission, can propel a sat

Learners combine different plant solutions -- made from fruits, vegetables, and flowers -- with equal amounts of vinegar (acid), water (neutral), and ammonia (base).

In this activity, learners will code an algorithm to make it through a maze.

In this interactive game, learners compare their music-listening skills with that of a three-month-old baby.
