More Science



Headed to Mid America Museum today as part of our "mini vacation". Kim and I each had gone as Kids, and I had gone with some friends after High school. They have added some things in the last (good God, I am not going to count that up) XX years. But several of the old favorites were still there. The kids had a blast! The only problem was getting them to move to the next experiment, so they could see it all before we had to leave.

I took many pictures and will only include a few here. The first one is from their large plasma sphere. It is amazing that after so many years these are still such a joy to watch. The second shot explains its self. Josh would try it long enough to get a good photo! The last shot is their Tesla Coil. It is a bit larger than the one I re-built in collage, and they claim it is the largest in the US, but I think I have seen large ones on the Net.
