Whales
featuring a 60-foot inflatable whale. Students will learn fantastically interesting facts about the many species of whales; they'll view slides and they'll examine whale photos to learn how whales are named. The inflatable "giant" will enable them to compare their own body size with that of these supreme mammals. Program length is approx. 45 minutes.
Astronomy
featuring the inflatable StarLab Portable Planetarium. Students will learn to locate planets, stars and constellations in the night sky. Planetarium can accommodate 25 students at a time. Program length is approx. 30 minutes per planetarium show.
Night Sky Viewing
featuring one or more (depending on crowd size) professional-grade telescopes to provide students and families with awesome views of celestial objects - the moon, planets (Jupiter & Saturn), comets, satellites, and the Int'l Space Station. Of course, this event is weather-dependent and what you'll see changes with the calendar. Program runs 2-3 hours after dark.
Marine Science
The Beach - examine beach sand from dozens of locations throughout the world; learn why the color and texture differ from beach to beach.

Tides & Waves - use wave bottles to "see" a wave crashing; a visual display details how tidal bulges and tsunamis are created, and how the moon effects tides at the beach.
