The LCC Science Fiction Club put on a halloween themed event to protect the LCC Campus from Pestum Immortosis - the zombie plague! Club members and the campus had a blast getting candy and pretending.
Everyone was invited to participate in the Zombie Plague Vaccination Program (ZPVP) where Nurses’* Station administered zombie plague vaccinations* in the Student Center on Monday, Oct. 28 and Tuesday, Oct. 29, 2013.
For those that got bitten by a zombie* before being vaccinated*, medication* from the ZPVP Nurses’ Station was available to slow the progression of the disease.
* Notes: Not real nurses, though some of them may play nurses on T.V. Vaccinations and medications are non-pharmaceutical candy-placebos. Zombie-actors respected personal space, and those that participate received a zombie “bite” certificate.
This is my son's science project from 7th grade (1999). The intention was to compare the weight supported by a suspension bridge and a truss bridge. The same amount of material (balsa and roadway) was used in both bridges.
Neither bridge failed under the weights that were added. Pretty impressive! As you can probably tell, the amount of weight on the suspension bridge wouldn't even fit on the truss bridge as built.
The washers are about 2 inches in diameter.

Nicolas Ochart and Linae Myhand of the “Science Kids,” a team from Heidelberg Middle School's 7th grade Science Club present information on wind turbines. They hope to implement the energy in their school by placing a wind turbine on the roof of the middle school. They presented their research at the Feb. 11 Community Update at the Patrick Henry Village Theater in Heidelberg.

Pacific Science Center includes six acres of hands-on science fun, two IMAX theaters, Tropical Butterfly House, Live Science Stage shows, Discovery Carts, Laser Dome and much more.
I don't remember what this was, but I remember it was at the science museum in London. It's one of the many free museums in this city. You have no excuse for being bored in London - you're just not taking advantage of what it has to offer.

Description: Segmented model of the cervical spine extracted from CT images. Segmentation is the partitioning of an image volume into non-overlapping voxelized regions. Each region defines the geometric locus of an anatomical structure. As part of the geometric modeling process, segmentation is the turning point in anatomical representation: it establishes the transition from the supportive bi-dimensional image realm (image data) to a fully tri-dimensional domain (mesh data).

Crocheting science. Free pattern here: knittyprofessors.blogspot.com/2008/10/free-covalence-skin...
Per the author, the pattern is inspired by covalent bonding. Per wikipedia:
A covalent bond is a form of chemical bonding that is characterized by the sharing of pairs of electrons between atoms, or between atoms and other covalent bonds. In short, attraction-to-repulsion stability that forms between atoms when they share electrons is known as covalent bonding.
H2O is a covalent bond.
I made the scarf out of Limari in a turquoise colorway. It has a gradient color ranging from a dark turquoise to a lighter blue and is a super bulky mohair/silk/alpaca blend. I choose it for this project because it is smooth and silky and the flow of it across my fingers reminds me of the flow of water across stones in a creek.

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.
Vancouver BC
Science World is a science centre run by a not-for-profit organization called ASTC Science World Society in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. It is located at the end of False Creek and features many permanent interactive exhibits and displays, as well as areas with varying topics throughout the years.
Prior to the building being handed over to Science World by the city government in 1987, the building was built as Expo Centre for the Expo 86 world's fair. Following the end of Expo 86, the building was re-purposed as a science centre. The science centre opened on May 6, 1989, as Science World. The museum was branded as Science World at Telus World of Science under a naming rights agreement with sponsor Telus Corporation from 2005 to 2020 before it reverted to its original name.

Budding future scientists and engineers gathered Saturday, March 7, at the 60th annual Northeast Indiana Regional Science and Engineering Fair. Students in grades 4--12 from 48 schools in an 8-county area displayed their winning projects and competed for numerous awards, including over $2,500 in cash prizes. Photo by Jim Whitcraft
While there may not be a scientific formula or equation proving science is fun, dozens of West Point cadets and faculty members attended the science fair at Sacred Heart of Jesus School in Highland Falls on March 24 to demonstrate how exciting the subject can be. Participants from the U.S. Military Academy showcased the best of electrical engineering and computer science, physics, civil and mechanical engineering, chemistry and life sciences.

Sometimes science is recognized as having an ivory-towered view on certain things. So here is the view out of one of those ivory towers ;-)

As part of Manchester Science Festival. The ‘Science Extravaganza’ brings together experts from across the faculty, creating family friendly workshops for members of the public. This year, the John Dalton Building became a Forensics Lab for a giant game of ‘who done it’, complete with detective notebooks and crime scene tape…
We were also proud to to host Combination Dance Co. working in collaboration with scientists from MMU, UCL and the Motor Neuron Disease Association. Dancers and martial arts performers staged an interactive dance exploring how we currently understand a motor neurone works, how MND affects the body and the effects MND has on those living with the disease.
