Event Details

 

Learn to make a Solar Oven. Cut a box, add some saran wrap and tinfoil, add a treat, and Voila! Come and enjoy the treats of your labor!!

Where would each planet be if we scale our solar system down to 100 yards?  Drop in from 2 to 4 and see.  You can ask questions, use a telescope to find the scale models of the planets, and more during this family friendly activity.  

Drop by between  2:30 and 3:30 to see how fast can you dash?  Start by Uranus or Neptune and dash back to the sun. How long did it take?
