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?
