SUMMARY:STEM at the Chevy Chase Library: Egg Drop Engineering Challenge - Presented by Science Connections
DESCRIPTION:Calling all future NASA engineers! Join Michelle Bertke of Science Connections to test out your design and construction skills. Learn how NASA engineers landed the most recent rover\, Perseverance\, on Mars in February 2021. Apply some of the same techniques they used to plan\, build\, and test out your very own creation. Can you complete the challenge: to protect your raw egg cargo from a 10-foot drop!! \nScience Connections specializes in exploring STEM (science\, technology\, engineering\, math) topics with hands-on activities that bring science alive. Each program and activity has been designed with Next Generation Science Standards in mind to ensure that it is not only fun but also educational. We will provide all of the materials for this program. \nFor 6-10 year olds \nSpace is limited. Register on our website! \nGenerously sponsored by the Friends of the Chevy Chase Library \nLocation: Chevy Chase Library Meeting Room (lower level) \nQuestions about this program?

SUMMARY:Dinosaur Park Free Open House
DESCRIPTION:Dinosaur Park offers a free Open House event from 12-4 pm on Saturday October 17th\, during which the public can learn about the plants and animals that called Maryland home during the early Cretaceous Period (115 million years ago)! As part of this community science program\, participants are also invited to help us make new discoveries by assisting with fossil surface collecting. Please note that there is no actual digging during this program\, rather we simply scour the surface to see what new fossils have been exposed through natural erosion. This program does not require any prior registration. Participants will sign up on site. This program is entirely outdoors and weather dependent\, so please keep an eye on the weather and dress appropriately. Please check the Dinosaur Park website to confirm the program is not cancelled due to weather.  \n\n\n\nThe October Open House theme is Maryland Fossil Symbols\, so we will also be highlighting Maryland’s three fossil state symbols: MD Fossil State Shell (Ecphora)\, MD State Dinosaur (Astrodon)\, and the MD State Shark (Megalodon). Learn about the intersection of science and society\, as we discuss the historical significance of these fossils and why we should all take pride in our Maryland fossil symbols.
