On March 13, 2010, students from southwest Washington middle and high schools participated in Science Olympiad, hosted by Lower Columbia College.
Students competed in a wide range of scientific fields, from anatomy to forensics to engineering.
Winners will move on to state, then national finals.
The School of Sciences at Stevenson University hosted a research poster session on January 16, 2014 to display the work students did on their various topics. Students, faculty, staff and visitors were able to see the great work Stevenson's students do to further their education
Children at SOKC made 2 types of snow, elephant toothpaste, mini cup volcano explosions, density tubes color changing milk, and lava tubes.
The Journal of Biosimilars & Biowaivers (JBSBW) promotes rigorous research that makes a significant contribution in advancing knowledge for Biosimilars. The journal includes all major themes pertaining to manufacturing process for biopharmaceuticals & waivers of clinical bioequivalence.

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.

Life-giving, land filling, body-hugging, sandwich-wrapping, energy-saving, non-degrading, hip-replacing... Plastics. Are they really fantastic?
'Love it? Hate it? Is it time to imagine life without it? The second century of plastics starts here...'

Images from a recent laser scan of the existing power station, part of the Powerhouse Science Center.
One of the primary purposes of laser scanning is to verify existing conditions on a job site. We have placed the point cloud files that were generated from the laser scan into the design model. The main focus; verify the dimension and placement of any existing conditions to remain are accurate.
With the click of a button we can compare the existing point cloud scan against the new design, and not just for the architectural design. The teal information in some of these images is the proposed mechanical design. In some locations the clearance to get this proposed ductwork in-between the existing beams and columns is less than a half inch.
Special thanks to Jordan Banning at California Surveying and Drafting Supply for donating his time and equipment for the laser scan.

The Surfing scientist comes to Sunrise for Christmas. Adding Mentos to coke takes skill and precision...
'Hmm, I have all these old rolls of film languishing in my bag. Let's have a look at these... OH HAI, INTARWEBZ!'
See if it wasn't for all the dust I failed to clean from the scanner, I wouldn't have had to edit this at all. I'm liking this lens.
Construction continues on the Powerhouse Science Center with some interior progress photos.

Work on the Science and Technology Training Center is well underway. The college broke ground at the site, which is adjacent to the Charles E. Russell Building, in October. When it has been completed next year, the 75,000-square-foot building will be PCC's largest and the 29th building on the college's main campus.
