Forces and Foundations
Description
Calling all engineers! Explore the physics and engineering principles of how things are built. Get an exclusive look behind the scenes of the Science Center as we explore the museum’s blueprints and take a tour with our very own Facilities & Security team! Campers will have the chance to experiment with various home systems through exploration of circuitry, plumbing and pipes, and create their own concrete mosaic keepsake as we learn about the durability of various building materials. We are also bringing back one of our favorite Big Science Shows – featuring a bed of nails!
