Celebrate International Observe the Moon Night with a special hands-on program presented by the Society of Women Engineers!

Follow the engineering design process to: (1) design and build a shock-absorbing system out of paper, straws, and mini-marshmallows; (2) attach your shock absorber to a cardboard platform; and (3) improve your design based on test results. Recommended for ages 8 and up. Please register.
