Clearing out the loft today. Came across a binder full of these:
I had them at school, probably in my second year, which would be late 1967 or early 1968.
Beautiful. hand drawn artwork from before the age of Photoshop.
Packed full of explanations of all the basic scientific principles. I learnt an incredible amount from these.
The annual Science Rocks! summer camp for area middle school students gives them the opportunity to learn about water conservation, health sciences, and even astronomy.
Stabilization of walls of historic structure.

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.

The theatre audience getting ready for myself, Kathy, Seb & Andrew talking at the Brighton Science Festival.
The Creative Commons music is Sandy, by Grace Valhalla - download it via Jamendo.
At 55 seconds left, you can see me in a tie, talking to the organiser Richard, and it goes dark with 50 seconds left while Richard did a demonstration showing how digital cameras can see the light from a remote control even though we cannot! (hence the flashes from camera's in the audience)
Note that I cut out a big chuck of the actually talk, since nothing really happened in the audience!
Elinor and Winfield Burks showed the Ensley Branch Library Science Club how to make light up dino cards with LEDs.

The newest academic building on Heidelberg's campus, Gillmor Science Hall houses the chemistry and biology departments, the Water Quality Laboratory and its National Center for Water Quality Research, and the archaeology department.
Evolutionists seek to make people believe that millions of years ago the Earth was a very different place, filled with strange creatures. Yet the same insects were flying millions of years ago as are flying today. The same fish were swimming, and the same spiders were spinning webs. God, Who creates them now in the most perfect form, has the power to create the same perfection whenever He wills.
