From Planets to Particles – An Exploration Mini-Fair

Are you interested in the mysteries of our planet and beyond? McGill Physics Outreach, Trottier Space Institute Outreach, and SMoRES (McGill Earth & Planetary Sciences Outreach) are joining forces to host “From Planets to Particles: An Exploration Mini-Fair”. Join us on Saturday May 6 between 10 am and 4 pm in the Rutherford Physics Building on the McGill campus for hands-on activities and demos about everything from gravity, life on other planets, building telescopes, coding, and craters to volcanoes, identifying earth and space rocks, and minerals! If you have a cool rock you’d like us to identify, bring it with you. We’ll also set up the telescopes for some solar observing. Activities are geared towards kids ages 6 -12, but younger and older siblings (and parents!) are welcome.
