Dreyfuss + Blackford Architecture’s design for the Powerhouse Science Center re-envisions a historic riverfront structure as a hub for science education, exploration and promotion in the City of Sacramento. On the banks of the Sacramento River, the Science Center grows out from an abandoned power station building. As a principal component of the Riverfront activation, the Powerhouse Science Center anchors Robert T. Matsui Waterfront Park and borders the southern terminus of the 32-mile American River Bike Trail.
Vacant for over half a century, the structure undergoes a complete historic rehabilitation and the construction of a new floor level inside. A new two-story addition projects from the east side, containing a lobby, classrooms, offices and a cafe. A 110-seat planetarium is prominently on display with a zinc-clad hemispheric dome rising above the building’s mass. As representation of our place in the universe, the facade and building mass is sectioned by multiple planes, creating continuous vector lines that extend across the building and site. From satellites to world landmarks, the lines form connections with local and global points of interest.
The original PG&E Power Station B was designed in 1912 in the Beaux Arts Style by architect Willis Polk and was formally closed in 1954. It is on the National Register of Historic Places, California Register of Historic Places and the Sacramento Register of Historic & Cultural Resources. The Powerhouse Science Center is designed to achieve a USGBC LEED Rating of Silver.

West Point Cadet Michael Swayze, Class of 2011, makes a strong case for science being fun as well as educational. The demonstration showed how to build a better fire through the relationship between surface area and fire. The Chemistry and Life Sciences majors and faculty drew captive crowds with fire, foam and chemical reactions. Dozens of West Point cadets and faculty from various departments attended the annual science fair at Sacred Heart of Jesus School in Highland Falls on Dec. 24 to showcase electrical engineering and computer science, physics, civil and mechanical engineering, chemistry and life sciences.

The Faculty of Science offers Science Rocks! summer camps every year throughout July and August. Designed especially for young people in Grades 4, 5, and 6. These camps are great fun and an awesome learning opportunity for campers.
Today the kids learned to make super stretchy silly putty, watched some amazing science demos, and flew paper airplanes on the green.
Photos for work from the 7th annual Des Moines Public Schools Science Fair. More than 200 students in grades 6-12 presented their research for a chance to go on to the Iowa State Science Fair. A lot of smart, confident kids all in one place.
Why are we building two new species: Homo chippus, a milliHuman, and Homo chippiens, a microHuman?
Microfabricated humans-on-a-chip! Why? Because it’s fun and a REAL challenge. Using the tools of physics, chemistry, engineering, physiology and molecular biology, we are exploring the unfathomable complexity that affects our development and growth and individual responses to disease, drugs, and aging. Multidimensional phase space illustrates the variables that affect H. chippus, H. chippiens and the scientists doing the work.

The Health Sciences Program at the University of Hartford prepares you for professional or graduate study in health-related fields, such as occupational therapy, speech pathology, or public health.
The pre-professional track of the health science program prepares you for professional or graduate study in such health-related fields as dentistry, allopathic or osteopathic medicine, optometry, chiropractic, or podiatry.
The curriculum includes prerequisite coursework for many graduate programs in health-related fields, such as biology, physics, and chemistry. The curriculum can also be tailored to meet your needs if you are interested in graduate programs with unique prerequisites (for example, two semesters of physics or a semester of biochemistry).
Additionally, you will take health science courses that introduce you to a wide range of health-related topics, such as Educational Strategies for Healthcare Professionals, The Human Genome, Introduction to Public Health, and Cardiovascular Disease. These courses can help you determine your long-term career goals by exposing you to a range of healthcare professional roles.

John Grunsfeld, associate administrator of the Science Mission Directorate at NASA, unveils the Hubble 25th anniversary image on April 23, 2015, at the Newseum in Washington, DC. The anniversary image is of a two-million-year-old cluster of about 3,000 stars called Westerlund 2, named after the astronomer who discovered it in the 1960s. Westerlund 2 is located in the constellation Carina about 20,000 light-years away from Earth.

Picture number: SPAD100001
Description: Apollo 10 Command Module, 1969. Apollo 10, carrying astronauts Thomas Stafford, John Young and Eugene Cernan, was launched in May 1969 on a lunar orbital mission as the dress rehearsal for the actual Apollo 11 landing. Stafford and Cernan descended in the Lunar Module to within 14 kilometres of the surface of the Moon, the closest approach until Neil Armstrong and Edwin ‘Buzz’ Aldrin in Apollo 11 landed on the surface two months later. The craft, which had the call sign ‘Charlie Brown’, travelled approximately 500,000 miles (800,000 km) during the eight-day mission and exceeded 24,790 mph (39,887 km/h) on its return to Earth, faster than any other crewed vehicle before or since.
