Scripps Research

Come learn about what scientists do and how you can be a scientist too! We have an interactive booth with a couple of STEM activities and information on the Community Teaching Lab at Scripps Research. Come be a part of our scientific community, we need you!

EcoVivarium

Hands-on interaction with reptiles and arthropods. We invite the public to meet, interact, and explore our relationship with nature through these amazing Ambassador Animals.

Solar Turbines

Interactive and fun booth demonstrating how energy is converted from stored to kinetic, similar to a gas turbine. Energy stored in a balloon is released into a fan, generating kinetic energy. A voltage is generated across the motor leads as the fan spins faster. The hands-on exhibit includes use of a 3D printed mini-turbine model, discussion around power generation through interaction with the Solar Turbines Team, and a cool look into a cutaway turbine engine model. For over 90 years, Solar Turbines has been a leader in energy solutions and advanced manufacturing.

American Chemical Society - San Diego Local Section

Our booth will feature the use of polyurethane foam ingredients. Two liquids will be mixed in small cups, and kids will watch as the polymer foam grows and expands before their eyes! Once the foam hardens, kids will be able to decorate their “polymer pals” using googly eyes, pipe cleaners, markers, and more! Our focus is on educating the general public about chemistry by featuring a simple example of a chemical reaction between two liquids to form a polymer foam.
