Join one of our museum educators as she reads Uncovering Earth’s Secrets: Science and Adventure on the JOIDES Resolution, by Kevin Kurtz, with illustrations by Alice Feagan!

Join one of our educators as she reads Iceberg of Antarctica by Marlo Garnsworthy. This is a story in two parts: the first part, about the lifespan of an iceberg, may be enough for some viewers—or stay for the “fine print” finale, with details on the JOIDES scientific coring expedition!

Rock and soil samples reveal a lot about the chemistry, physical structure, and ability to support life on a planet, moon, or asteroid.

Can you complete this engineering challenge to design a device that takes core samples of a potato “asteroid”? This activity is geared toward upper-elementary and middle-school students.

Join one of our educators for a series of at-home science demonstrations on atmospheric pressure!

Create your own world of mountains and valleys, and watch the effects of a rainstorm!

Appropriate for pre-k and up, with supervision (mess potential!)

Join one of our educators to learn more about how we test and modify the pH levels in our hydroponic vegetable garden!
