A New World View

A tribute to the World Year of Physics 2005, this artwork combines symbols of Einstein's contributions to physics and pictures of children to create a unique piece celebrating science.

PhysicsQuest

PhysicsQuest is a middle school competition that consists of four physical science experiments centered on a mystery. The experiments are designed to be done by small groups in a classroom or after school setting. Each of the experiments gives students a clue that they need to solve the mystery. Classes can submit their answers online and be entered into a random drawing for prizes. PhysicsQuest kits are provided free to registered classrooms.
