Presenter Christine Spaulding will introduce children to the scientific concept of air pressure in space. Participants will design and test the safety of a space suit for a marshmallow astronaut, observing what happens when put in a vacuum chamber.
The Second Saturday Science series—for ages 7 to 12—creates fun, hands-on opportunities for children to explore concepts related to science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM). Preregistration is required due to space limitations.
