Go on an out-of-this-world learning adventure led by a DSP expert
Dry Ice – the Coolest Ice Around
What type of ice is so cold you can’t pick it up, but it will never melt? What type of ice can make George Washington scream, a Halloween cauldron come to life, and film canister rockets blast off? You won’t find the answer in your freezer, and it has nothing to do with water.
In this program, students are invited to see the power of frozen solid carbon dioxide … dry ice.
PLANETARIUM SHOWS
Spot constellations, learn about the solar system, and explore the night sky. Students step into the shoes of an astronomer in this inflatable planetarium.
30–45 minutes | Additional $2 per student
