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.
In the morning today, Science Rocks kids focused on interesting behaviours of fire and light and explored the state of solids and liquids. In the afternoon, outdoors activities included water fun in the sun.
Construction continues on site.

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.

It's a science building in a great location near to downtown Vancouver. With IMAX cinema and interesting machines and puzzle this place is a heaven for the kids they can enjoy their times and learn at the same time.
At the Plant Science Contests held on June 14, 2017, several 4-H members from Lancaster and other Nebraska counties tested their plant identification knowledge in the following contests:
• Tree identification
• Grass-weed identification
• Horticulture contest
The Plant Science Contests are a Lancaster County Super Fair contest held before the Super Fair.
In Lancaster County, the 4-H youth development program is a partnership between Nebraska Extension and the Lancaster County government. Learn more about Lancaster County 4-H at lancaster.unl.edu/4h.

Description: The intensity of the solar radiation between wavelengths 4000 A and 4100 A is shown in this spectrum at high resolution. The solar output shows numerous absorption lines, which result from the presence of a multitude of chemical elements, such as iron, in the Sun's atmosphere. Atomic transitions in a given element originate absorption features at specific wavelengths in the spectrum, thus allowing to identify the solar composition from the analysis of the Sun's light.

One space lab, five spacecraft, 10 years of success. Nearly a decade ago, the Columbus laboratory set sail for humanity’s new world in space.
Shortly afterwards, the first Automated Transfer Vehicle (ATV) arrived at the International Space Station as the most reliable and complex spacecraft ever built in Europe.
The event was a unique opportunity to re-live some exciting milestones, connect live to the Station and look into space exploration plans.
The larger Columbus family of planners, builders, scientists, support teams and astronauts gathered in ESTEC, the Netherlands on February 7 2018 to celebrate the past, present and future of Europe’s major contributions to the Station.
