Live Science Demonstrations

You’ll always remember a trip to the Science Spectrum after seeing a million volts of electricity shot like lighting from our giant Tesla-Coil. Exploding fire balls, objects frozen at temperatures below -300 degrees, and experiments straight from your kitchen are sure to please!

Outreach Programs:
Auditorium style Programs


Space Bubble: Our most popular OUTREACH Program uses a 23 foot inflatable dome to teach Astronomy and Biology through one of four programs: Solar System(grades 6-12), Starry Nights(grades 3-12), Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star (Pre-K- 2nd  grade), and The Cell (grades 6-12).
(30-45 Minutes/ 35 students max)

Crazy Chemistry: This program presents the ideas of physical and chemical changes, and students will be able to observe examples of the changes in an controlled environment.


SuperCold: Ever wonder how cold is too cold? This program is a detailed look at the properties of Liquid Nitrogen. Through demonstrations students will gain an understanding of how cold, cold can be.


Combustion: This program illustrates the basic principles of Combustion. Students will learn what components are needed for the fire triangle and basic fire safety principles.
