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.

This was the first in Kristin Prather's series of Science and Math Workshops. They are for Intermediate School students to learn basic math and science concepts through FUN activities and demonstrations. They will get to make rockets, search the stars, and test mind-boggling physics theories. Let's not forget playing math games!
March 15 (Science) : 3-6 PM
March 29 (Math) : 12-3 PM
April 26 (Science) : 12-3 PM
May 3 (Math) : 12-3 PM
All workshops are in the Activity Room in the Friendswood Public Library.
The Eckerd College Science Symposium was established in 2009 to promote the public understanding of science. The symposium encourages collaboration and communication among notable scientists, alumni, faculty, staff and students and welcomes visitors to learn more about Eckerd College. A student photo contest, and resulting exhibit, offers everyone an opportunity to share in a visual feast of science.
Lower Columbia College is proud to host the annual Science Olympiad where K-12 and High School students
complete in academic workshops. Students have gone through much preparation, commitment, coaching and
practice all year for this event. Competitions are related to a multitude of studies such as Genetics,
Engineering, Technology, Thermodynamics, Physics, Anatomy, Earth Science, Biology, Chemistry and more.

Science Museum, Kensington, London, May 1979; Lunar Module replica. Shot on tungsten balanced slide film with (probably) a Praktica LLC. Not sure what lens. That's the real Apollo 10 Command Module in the foreground. I'm not sure where all this stuff is now. (update: both are still there, the LM replica has been refurbished and moved to a different part of the museum - a quick Google Image search shows this. The historic CM has not been moved as far as I can see.)
Worm we found in Nordfjorden when digging up sediments from different depths. Looks just like an earthworm
