OUR FAVORITE DEMOS
Shuttle Tile
This is one of our favorite demos! We let an unsuspecting volunteer hold a mysterious tile in their hand and then set a torch to the other side. The volunteer's hand is completely unscathed. Magic or materials?
Prince Rupert Drops
Have you ever seen glass explode? Check out a Prince Rupert drop!
Superconductor Levitation
YBCO is a high temperature superconductor...meaning that it shows super conducting properties at a temperature that's relatively easy to attain. In this case, we use liquid nitrogen. The levitation shown in the video below occurs due the Meissner effect. Read about it here!
Casting
Does it really get cooler than molten metal? After making a silicone mold, students pour molten tin/silver solder to create their very own casting. Check it out below!
