The Russians invaded Science World and used it as their pavilion to promote the next winter Olympics, Sochi 2014, which they host.
Our teachers received professional development from trainers that came to us from the Carnegie Science Museum in Pittsburgh. The session had "hands on"activities and was quite interesting.
I was really impressed with their van and would love to get the chance to drive it around!!

iss072e308289 (Dec. 2, 2024) --- NASA astronaut and Expedition 72 Commander Suni Williams displays science hardware housing bacteria and yeast samples for the Rhodium Biomanufacturing 03 study that may enable the production of food and medicine in space. Williams was in the cupola, the International Space Station's "window to the world," as the orbital outpost soared 258 miles above a cloudy Pacific Ocean off the coast of Costa Rica.

NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center Visitor Center in Greenbelt, Md. hosted a special Webb Family Science Night on Wednesday, July 25, 2012.
Participants partook in hands-on activities to see what light looks like after it passes through lenses. By putting one lens in front of another, they made a telescope. Although Webb is not a telescope that will use a lens to collect its light, participants were able to build a telescope of similar ability to that of Galileo’s.
This special Webb Family Science Night was a hands-on and inquiry-based program designed for middle school students and their families, intended to increase STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) engagement, interest, and understanding. The Webb Family Science Night was a collaboration between NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope and Goddard’s Office of Education. The educational materials supporting this event were donated by SPIE – the International Society for Photonics and Optics.

Today Prime Minister Theresa May visited Jodrell Bank to outline the government's modern Industrial Strategy.
The Scout family of rockets were American launch vehicles designed to place small satellites into orbit around the Earth. The Scout multistage rocket was the first (and for a long time, the only) orbital launch vehicle to be entirely composed of solid fuel stages.
The original Scout (an acronym for Solid Controlled Orbital Utility Test system) was designed in 1957 at the NACA Langley center. Scout launch vehicles were used from 1961 until 1994. To enhance reliability the development team opted to use "off the shelf" hardware, originally produced for military programs. According to the NASA fact sheet:
"... the first stage motor was a combination of the Jupiter Senior and the Navy Polaris; the second stage came from the Army MGM-29 Sergeant; and the third and fourth stage motors were designed by Langley engineers who adapted a version of the Navy Vanguard."
The first successful orbital launch of a Scout, on February 16, 1961, delivered Explorer 9, a 7-kg satellite used for atmospheric density studies, into orbit.

A group of sixth grade girls from a Maryville Middle School science class visited Northwest's Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship, Nov. 30, 2012, as part of science video the class was producing. Here, Dr. Michael Hull, assistant professor of chemistry, is teaching the students how to use a glove box, which allows chemists to handle chemicals without any exposure to oxygen or moisture.
