Ride a Hovercraft or Float Your Boat at Our Fall

experiment with gravity, friction, and the laws of motion!
Beginning October 5, students will be able to:
- Ride a hovercraft to experience how air pressure works
- Launch rockets to explore propulsion
- Float a sailboat to experiment with the effects of wind
- Launch a hot air balloon and more!
Students will spend 30 minutes in the exhibit and 30 minutes in a
program that enriches the concepts learned.
