April 30, 2022 - NEMO Science Museum designed by Italian architect Renzo Piano and completed in 1997. "Pianoâs striking, copper-green design helped the NEMO Science Museum to become one of the most recognizable buildings in Amsterdam. Situated on top of a tunnel on the cityâs eastern docks, the building appears to rise dramatically out of the water. Piano felt Amsterdam was lacking a piazza overlooking the city, and designed the rooftop of the building to afford visitors such a view. Since 2013, the NEMO rooftop has featured a fully-functioning garden and has become a tourist attraction of its own accord."

My favorite. I can't imagine how difficult it was to put this delicate piece together.

Dayron, Tafadzwa, and P.J. look on as two students eagerly launch one of the model rockets that the kids built during Science Savvy. Disappearing in just the blink of an eye, the rocket quickly deployed its parachute and drifted serenely back down.

Sep 22 four student volunteers from the Physics Deptâs Outreach Group joined the Chemistry Deptâs Outreach Group for âAn Evening of Scienceâ in front of the French Science Building. Using demonstrations, the students explained two topics they learned in mechanics, Newtonâs 3rd Law and Waves.
The image here is of a Rubenâs Tube. The pipe has a speaker inserted in one end and the other end plugged. There is a line of small holes drilled along the top and a gas valve on the front â basically a long grill with a speaker in one end. (The Outreach group can cook hot dogs, too!) After turning on the gas and lighting, an amplified function generator sends a sine wave to the speaker at one of the tubeâs resonant frequencies. The flame heights will vary according to the sound pressure level at each hole thus the standing wave in flames.

Scientific researchers in Canada see amazing things through the microscope lens and out in the field. Each year, the Science Exposed research image contest highlights the work of scientists across the country. This exhibition features some of the finalists' submissions from the past five years of the contest. Their images provide a glimpse into ongoing Canadian, research, and reveal the beauty and wonder of their scientific observations.
Science Exposed and La preuve par l'image are presented by the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada and Acfas.
Original pilot Bessemer converter from which the first cast of steel was poured at the works of the Barrow Haematite Steel Company Ltd., Barrow-in-Furness, in May 1865
Sir Henry Bessemer (1813-1898) was an English inventor and engineer who invented a cheap process for maufacturing steel. He patented a process by which molten pig iron was converted to steel by blowing air through it in a Bessemer converter.This removed most of the impurities and no extra fuel was required, because the carbon, oxidised during the blow, generated great heat. Establishing a steelworks in Sheffield, England, Bessemer manufactured guns and, later, steel rails.

Mr. McAlduff answers a question about the Winchestser High School phone system. The current system will be replaced with a Voice Over Internet Protocol (VOIP) system, allowing teachers to reliably retrieve their messages by voice or by computer. The state will reimburse Winchester $1250 per student (capacity of the new design is 1370 students) for technology expenses. Neighboring school districts report that technology uprgrades cost an additional $600 per student. The plans include capacity for 3 wireless devices for each student and faculty member.
